result
Row subqueries producing no rows were not handled as UNKNOWN
values in row comparison expressions.
That was a result of the following two problems:
1. Item_singlerow_subselect did not mark the resulting row
value as NULL/UNKNOWN when no rows were produced.
2. Arg_comparator::compare_row() did not take into account that
a whole argument may be NULL rather than just individual scalar
values.
Before bug#34384 was fixed, the above problems were hidden
because an uninitialized (i.e. without any stored value) cached
object would appear as NULL for scalar values in a row subquery
returning an empty result. After the fix
Arg_comparator::compare_row() would try to evaluate
uninitialized cached objects.
Fixed by removing the aforementioned problems.
Arg_comparator initializes 'comparators' array in case of
ROW comparison and does not free this array on destruction.
It leads to memory leaks.
The fix:
-added Arg_comparator::cleanup() method which frees
'comparators' array.
-added Item_bool_func2::cleanup() method which calls
Arg_comparator::cleanup() method
In case of ROW item each compared pair does not
check if argumet collations can be aggregated and
thus appropiriate item conversion does not happen.
The fix is to add the check and convertion for ROW
pairs.
Assertion `0' failed
If ROW item is a part of an expression that also has
aggregate function calls (COUNT/SUM/AVG...), a
"splitting" with an Item::split_sum_func2 function
is applied to that ROW item.
Current implementation of Item::split_sum_func2
replaces this Item_row with a newly created
Item_aggregate_ref reference to it.
Then the row cache tries to work with the
Item_aggregate_ref object as with the Item_row object:
row cache calls row-emulation methods such as cols and
element_index. Item_aggregate_ref (like it's parent
Item_ref) inherits dummy implementations of those
methods from the hierarchy root Item, and call to
them leads to failed assertions and wrong data
output.
Row-emulation virtual functions (cols, element_index, addr,
check_cols, null_inside and bring_value) of Item_ref have
been overloaded to forward calls to an underlying item
reference.

When allocating memory for KEY_FIELD/SARGABLE_PARAM structures the
function update_ref_and_keys did not take into account the fact that
a single row equality could be replaced by several simple equalities.
Fixed by adjusting the counter cond_count accordingly for each subquery

Now all row equalities are converted into conjunctions of
equalities between row elements. They are taken into account
by the optimizer together with the original regular equality
predicates.
Added more DBUG statements

Use 'any_db' instead of '' to mean any database. (For HANDLER command)
Only strip ' ' when comparing CHAR, not other space-like characters (like \t)
