Some hosts do not use the 'Dynamic' row format for new MySQL tables which can cause problems when adding columns to tables during an update (or when installing a plugin). If we can detect these issues, we should try to fix them, and in the case the database doesn't allow us to, tell the user to contact their hosting provider.
