Expose the InnoDB file format

Registered by Bill Karwin

Implement a way to query the file format of a specified tablespace. I suggest an INFORMATION_SCHEMA enhancement. An InnoDB tablespace file can be in Antelope or Barracuda format, but there is no way to query the tablespace to find out what format it uses. The ROW_FORMAT can be seen in SHOW TABLE STATUS and SHOW CREATE TABLE, but this is not definitive because the row format is set even when Barracuda is not enabled.

INFORMATION_SCHEMA INNODB_SYS_TABLESPACES has a FILE_FORMAT column now.
