CHECK_SIMPLE_EQUALITY

PROBLEM:
Crash in "check_simple_equality" when using a subquery with "IN" and
"ALL" in prepare.

ANALYSIS:
Crash can be reproduced using a simplified query like this one:
prepare s from "select 1 from g1 where 1 < all (
                select @:=(1 in (select 1 from g1)) from g1)";

This bug is currently present only on 5.5.and 5.1. Its fixed as part
of work log(#1110) in 5.6. We are taking one change to fix this
in 5.5 and 5.1.

Problem seems to be present because we are trying to evaluate "is_null"
on an argument which is part of a subquery
(In Item_is_not_null_test::update_used_tables()).
But the condition to evaluate is only when we do not have a sub query
present, which means to say that "with_subselect" is not set.
With respect to the above query, we create an object of type
"Item_in_optimizer" which by definition is always associated with a
subquery. While in 5.6 we set "with_subselect" to true for
"Item_in_optimizer" object, we do not do the same in 5.5. This results in
the evaluation for "is_null" resulting in a coredump.
So, we are now setting "with_subselect" to true for "Item_in_optimizer"
in 5.1 and 5.5.
