Same for show, and 'show variables' is implicitly the same as the clearer 'show session
variables'.
> global is what would be used if the thread does not change it
That is, at connect time all the session variables are initialized from the global
variables; and the session can then override them.
For status variables (like com_*), the globals are cumulative counters, while the session
ones are this-session counters.
