    2016-06-14 Contrary to what's written in these comments, the truth is:
    - tables created by CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE have TABLE_CATEGORY_USER
    - tables created by create_tmp_table() (internal ones) have
    TABLE_CATEGORY_TEMPORARY.
    ha_innodb.cc relies on this observation (so: grep it).  If you clean this
    up, you may also want to look at 'no_tmp_table'; its enum values' meanings
    have degraded over time: INTERNAL_TMP_TABLE is not used for some internal
    tmp tables (derived tables). Unification of both enums would be

       It is assigned from a global counter incremented for each
       new table loaded into the table definition cache (TDC).
     * for temporary tables it's table_map_id again. But for
       temporary tables table_map_id is assigned from
       thd->query_id. The latter is assigned from a thread local
       counter incremented for every new SQL statement. Since
       temporary tables are thread-local, each temporary table
       gets a unique id.
     * for everything else (e.g. information schema tables),
       the version id is zero.
 
   This choice of version id is a large compromise
   to have a working prepared statement validation in 5.1. In
   future version ids will be persistent, as described in WL#4180.
 
   Let's try to explain why and how this limited solution allows
   to validate prepared statements.
 
   Firstly, sets (in mathematical sense) of version numbers
   never intersect for different table types. Therefore,
   version id of a temporary table is never compared with
   a version id of a view, and vice versa.
 
   Secondly, for base tables and views, we know that each DDL flushes
   the respective share from the TDC. This ensures that whenever
   a table is altered or dropped and recreated, it gets a new
   version id.
   Unfortunately, since elements of the TDC are also flushed on
   LRU basis, this choice of version ids leads to false positives.
   E.g. when the TDC size is too small, we may have a SELECT
   * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES flush all its elements, which
   in turn will lead to a validation error and a subsequent
   reprepare of all prepared statements.  This is
   considered acceptable, since as long as prepared statements are
   automatically reprepared, spurious invalidation is only
   a performance hit. Besides, no better simple solution exists.
 
   For temporary tables, using thd->query_id ensures that if
   a temporary table was altered or recreated, a new version id is
   assigned. This suits validation needs very well and will perhaps
   never change.
 
   Metadata of information schema tables never changes.
   Thus we can safely assume 0 for a good enough version id.
 
   Finally, by taking into account table type, we always
   track that a change has taken place when a view is replaced
   with a base table, a base table is replaced with a temporary
   table and so on.
 
   @retval  0        For schema tables, DD tables and system views.
            non-0    For bases tables, views and temporary tables.
