SELECT DISTINCT did not work with expressions with sum functions.
Distinct was only done on the values stored in the intermediate temporary
tables, which only stored the value of each sum function.
In other words:
SELECT DISTINCT sum(a),sum(b),avg(c) ... worked.
SELECT DISTINCT sum(a),sum(b) > 2,sum(c)+sum(d) would not work.
The later query would do ONLY apply distinct on the sum(a) part.

This was fixed by extending remove_dup_with_hash_index() and
remove_dup_with_compare() to take into account the columns in the result
list that where not stored in the temporary table.
Note that in many cases the above dup removal functions are not used as
the optimizer may be able to either remove duplicates early or it will
discover that duplicate remove is not needed. The later happens for
example if the group by fields is part of the result.
Other things:
- Backported from 11.0 the change of Sort_param.tmp_buffer from char* to
String.
- Changed Type_handler::make_sort_key() to take String as a parameter
instead of Sort_param. This was done to allow make_sort_key() functions
to be reused by distinct elimination functions.
This makes Type_handler_string_result::make_sort_key() similar to code
in 11.0
- Simplied error handling in remove_dup_with_compare() to remove code
duplication.
ha_partition stores records in array of m_ordered_rec_buffer and uses
it for prio queue in ordered index scan. When the records are restored
from the array the blob buffers may be already freed or rewritten.
The solution is to take temporary ownership of cached blob buffers via
String::swap(). When the record is restored from m_ordered_rec_buffer
the ownership is returned to table fields.
Cleanups:
init_record_priority_queue(): removed needless !m_ordered_rec_buffer
check as there is same assertion few lines before.
dbug_print_row() for arbitrary row pointer
The issue here was the system variable max_sort_length was being applied
to decimals and it was truncating the value for decimals to the number
of bytes set by max_sort_length.
This was leading to a buffer overflow as the values were written
to the buffer without truncation and then we moved the offset to
the number of bytes(set by max_sort_length), that are needed for comparison.
The fix is to not apply max_sort_length for fixed size types like INT,
DECIMALS and only apply max_sort_length for CHAR, VARCHARS, TEXT and
BLOBS.
Make sure that the sort_buffer that is allocated has atleast space for MERGEBUFF2 keys.
The issue here was that the record length is quite high and sort buffer size is very small,
due to which we end up with zero number of keys in the sort buffer. The Sort_param::max_keys_per_buffer
was zero in such a case, due to which we were flushing empty sort_buffer to the disk.
The issue here is for a DEPENDENT subquery that has an aggregate function in the ORDER BY clause,
is wrapped inside an Item_aggregate_ref. For computation of ORDER BY we need to refer to the
temp table field corresponding to this item. But in the function make_sortorder, we were
explicitly casting Item_aggrgate_ref to Item_sum, which leads to us not getting the temp
table field corresponding to the item.
Make sure that the sort buffers can store atleast one sort key.
This is needed to make sure that all merge buffers are read else
with no sort keys some merge buffers are skipped because the code
makes a conclusion there is no data to be read.

Maintainer mode makes all warnings errors. This patch fix warnings. Mostly about
deprecated `register` keyword.
Too much warnings came from Mroonga and I gave up on it.
