Added test cases for bug #7351.
item_cmpfunc.cc:
Fixed bug #7351: incorrect result for a query with a
subquery returning empty set.
If in the predicate v IN (SELECT a FROM t WHERE cond)
v is null, then the result of the predicate is either
INKNOWN or FALSE. It is FALSE if the subquery returns
an empty set.
item_subselect.cc:
Fixed bug #7351: incorrect result for a query with a
subquery returning empty set.
The problem was due to not a quite legal transformation
for 'IN' subqueries. A subquery containing a predicate
of the form
v IN (SELECT a FROM t WHERE cond)
was transformed into
EXISTS(SELECT a FROM t WHERE cond AND (a=v OR a IS NULL)).
Yet, this transformation is valid only if v is not null.
If v is null, then, in the case when
(SELECT a FROM t WHERE cond) returns an empty set the value
of the predicate is FALSE, otherwise the result of the
predicate is INKNOWN.
The fix resolves this problem by changing the result
of the transformation to
EXISTS(SELECT a FROM t WHERE cond AND (v IS NULL OR (a=v OR a IS NULL)))
in the case when v is nullable.
The new transformation prevents applying the lookup
optimization for IN subqueries. To make it still
applicable we have to introduce guarded access methods.
