Description:
Hi,

As a child bug to http://bugs.mysql.com/45458 here comes a patch
that introduces a new index-flag which lets a SE inform optimizer
that an index can be considered clustered, and a change to optimizer
so that it will use it for order/group by on "equal" terms with a
clustered primary key index.

How to repeat:
This is a feature request to allow storage engines to support multiple clustering
indexes.

Suggested fix:
I will submit a patch

Other places that need to be modified to take into account clustering keys:
MySQL bug #39653
MySQL bug #50843
function get_best_ror_intersect needs to exclude clustering keys

There may be more. I am in the progress of tracking them down
