Subject: [PATCH] Fixed bug #27932: the function LOCATE returned NULL if any of
 its arguments was evaluated to NULL, while the predicate LOCATE(str,NULL) IS
 NULL erroneously was evaluated to FALSE.

This happened because the Item_func_locate::fix_length_and_dec
method by mistake set the value of the maybe_null flag for
the function item to 0. In consequence of this the function
was considered as the one that could not ever return NULL.
