MDEV-30324: Wrong result upon SELECT DISTINCT ... WITH TIES

WITH TIES would not take effect if SELECT DISTINCT was used in a
context where an INDEX is used to resolve the ORDER BY clause.

WITH TIES relies on the `JOIN::order` to contain the non-constant
fields to test the equality of ORDER BY fiels required for WITH TIES.

The cause of the problem was a premature removal of the `JOIN::order`
member during a DISTINCT optimization. This lead to WITH TIES code assuming
ORDER BY only contained "constant" elements.

Disable this optimization when WITH TIES is in effect.

(side-note: the order by removal does not impact any current tests, thus
it will be removed in a future version)
