Gleb Shchepa db1d38c910 Bug#26020: User-Defined Variables are not consistent with ...

columns data types

The "SELECT @lastId, @lastId := Id FROM t" query returns
different result sets depending on the type of the Id column
(INT or BIGINT).

Note: this fix doesn't cover the case when a select query
references an user variable and stored function that
updates a value of that variable, in this case a result
is indeterminate.


The server uses incorrect assumption about a constantness of
an user variable value as a select list item: 

The server caches a last query number where that variable
was changed and compares this number with a current query
number. If these numbers are different, the server guesses,
that the variable is not updating in the current query, so
a respective select list item is a constant. However, in some
common cases the server updates cached query number too late.


The server has been modified to memorize user variable
assignments during the parse phase to take them into account
on the next (query preparation) phase independently of the
order of user variable references/assignments in a select
item list.
