query with VALUES()
A table value constructor can be used in all contexts where a select
can be used. In particular an ORDER BY clause or a LIMIT clause or both
of them can be attached to a table value constructor to produce a new
query. Unfortunately execution of such queries was not supported.
This patch fixes the problem.
This patch always provides columns of the temporary table used for
materialization of a table value constructor with some names.
Before this patch these names were always borrowed from the items
of the first row of the table value constructor. When this row
contained expressions and expressions were not named then it could cause
different kinds of problems. In particular if the TVC is used as the
specification of a derived table this could cause a crash.
The names given to the expressions used in a TVC are the same as those
given to the columns of the result set from the corresponding SELECT.
value constructor shows wrong number of rows
If the specification of a derived table contained a table value constructor
then the optimizer incorrectly estimated the number of rows in the derived
table. This happened because the optimizer did not take into account the
number of rows in the constructor. The wrong estimate could lead to choosing
inefficient execution plans.
