The problem with having sql-bench separately, is that we have now
started to actively sql-bench to test our newest optimizations and
features.

This will make each sql-bench more MariaDB release specific and a
newer sql-bench may not necessarily work with an older version if
MariaDB.

I agree we should coordinate as much as possible, the question is just
what the best way to do it.

However the project to run mysqld and sql-bench with a lot of different
configurations is quite independent from sql-bench itself and could
almost qualify as another project.

Lets discuss this is more detail as soon Hakan got the new
multi-run mysqld + sql-bench testing script ready.
