in server/sql_plugin.cc
there are three arays, min_plugin_info_interface_version,
cur_plugin_info_interface_version, and
max_plugin_info_interface_version, and then the plugin structure
declares a "version" as it's very first integer member.
In theory, this is so that MySQL could version the plugin ABI, and
allow a range of versions.
In practice, this never worked, and probably never will. There is no
point in versioning our ABI until we have an ABI other than "the whole
server".
I want to rip it all out. It will make the plugin system simpler,
remove code that adds no value.
What say you all?
