BUG#50019: Wrong result for IN-subquery with materialization
- Fix equality substitution in presense of semi-join materialization, lookup and scan variants
(started off from fix by Evgen Potemkin, then modified it to work in all cases)
This patch does three things:
- It adds the possibility to force the execution of top-level [NOT] IN
subquery predicates via the IN=>EXISTS transformation. This is done by
setting both optimizer switches partial_match_rowid_merge and
partial_match_table_scan to "off".
- It adjusts all test cases where the complete optimizer_switch is
selected because now we have two more switches.
- For those test cases where the plan changes because of the new available
strategies, we switch off both partial match strategies in order to
force the "old" IN=>EXISTS strategy. This is done because most of these
test cases specifically test bugs in this strategy.

- The problem was that DuplicateWeedout strategy setup code wasn't aware of the
fact that join buffering will be used and applied optimization that doesn't work
together with join buffering. Fixed by making DuplicateWeedout setup code to have
a pessimistic check about whether there is a chance that join buffering will be
used.
- Make JOIN_CACHE_BKA::init() correctly process Copy_field elements that denote saving
current rowids in the join buffer.

Added a question note
This patch implements correct NULL semantics for materialized subquery execution.
The implementation has the following properties and main limitations:
- It passes all query result tests, but fails a number of EXPLAIN tests because of
changed plans.
- The EXPLAIN output for partial matching is not decided yet.
- It works only when all necessary indexes fit into main memory. Notice that these
are not the general B-tree/Hash indexes, but instead much more compact ones,
therefore this limitation may not be a problem in many practical cases.
- It doesn't contain specialized tests.
- In several places the implementation uses methods that are modified copies of
other similar methods. These cases need to be refactored to avoid code duplication.
- Add a test if the predicate is top-level just before deciding on partial matching.
If it is top-level, use a more efficient exec method (index lookup).
- Add sorting of indexes according to their selectivity. The code is almost there.
- Needs more comments, and to sync existing ones with the implementation.
sql/item_cmpfunc.h:
Expose the Arg_comparator of a comparison predicate. This makes it possible to
directly get the comparison result {-1,0,1}, which is not possible through the
val_XXX() methods which "fold" such results into a boolean.

sql/opt_subselect.cc:
Removed the limitation for materialized subquery execution that it is applicable only
for top-level predicates.
sql/sql_class.cc:
New class select_materialize_with_stats that collects data statistics about
the data being inserted into the target table.
sql/sql_class.h:
New class select_materialize_with_stats that collects data statistics about
the data being inserted into the target table.
sql/sql_select.cc:
- more complete initialization of the TABLE object of a temp table.
- call setup_subquery_materialization at one more exit point.
