   small chance that mysqld crashes in the middle of insert and end of
   the binlog would look like a Stop_event).

   This flag is used to detect a restart after a crash, and to provide
   "unbreakable" binlog. The problem is that on a crash storage engines
   rollback automatically, while binlog does not.  To solve this we use this
   flag and automatically append ROLLBACK to every non-closed binlog (append
   virtually, on reading, file itself is not changed). If this flag is found,
   mysqlbinlog simply prints "ROLLBACK". Replication master does not abort on
   binlog corruption, but takes it as EOF, and replication slave forces a
   rollback in this case.

   Note, that old binlogs does not have this flag set, so we get a
   a backward-compatible behaviour.

  @section Binary_log_event_binary_format Binary Format

  @anchor Binary_log_event_format
  Any @c Binary_log_event saved on disk consists of the following four
  components.

  - Common-Header
  - Post-Header
  - Body
  - Footer

  Common header has the same format and length in a given MySQL version. It is
  documented @ref Table_common_header "here".

  The Body may be of different format and length even for different events of
  the same type. The binary formats of Post-Header and Body are documented
  separately in each subclass.

  Footer is common to all the events in a given MySQL version. It is documented
  @ref Table_common_footer "here".

  @anchor packed_integer
  - Some events, used for RBR use a special format for efficient representation
  of unsigned integers, called Packed Integer.  A Packed Integer has the
  capacity of storing up to 8-byte integers, while small integers
  still can use 1, 3, or 4 bytes.  The value of the first byte
  determines how to read the number, according to the following table:

  <table>
  <caption>Format of Packed Integer</caption>

  <tr>
    <th>First byte</th>
    <th>Format</th>
  </tr>

  <tr>
    <td>0-250</td>
    <td>The first byte is the number (in the range 0-250), and no more
    bytes are used.</td>
  </tr>

  <tr>
    <td>252</td>
    <td>Two more bytes are used.  The number is in the range
    251-0xffff.</td>
  </tr>

  <tr>
    <td>253</td>
    <td>Three more bytes are used.  The number is in the range
    0xffff-0xffffff.</td>
  </tr>

  <tr>
    <td>254</td>
    <td>Eight more bytes are used.  The number is in the range
    0xffffff-0xffffffffffffffff.</td>
  </tr>

  </table>

  - Strings are stored in various formats.  The format of each string
  is documented separately.
