* Provide backwards compatibility extension to name resolution of
coalesced columns. The patch allows such columns to be qualified
with a table (and db) name, as it is in 4.1.
Based on a patch from Monty.
* Adjusted tests accordingly to test both backwards compatible name
resolution of qualified columns, and ANSI-style resolution of
non-qualified columns.
For this, each affected test has two versions - one with qualified
columns, and one without.
"Process NATURAL and USING joins according to SQL:2003".
* Some of the main problems fixed by the patch:
- in "select *" queries the * expanded correctly according to
ANSI for arbitrary natural/using joins
- natural/using joins are correctly transformed into JOIN ... ON
for any number/nesting of the joins.
- column references are correctly resolved against natural joins
of any nesting and combined with arbitrary other joins.
* This patch also contains a fix for name resolution of items
inside the ON condition of JOIN ... ON - in this case items must
be resolved only against the JOIN operands. To support such
'local' name resolution, the patch introduces a stack of
name resolution contexts used at parse time.
NOTICE:
- This patch is not complete in the sense that
- there are 2 test cases that still do not pass -
one in join.test, one in select.test. Both are marked
with a comment "TODO: WL#2486".
- it does not include a new test specific for the task
are not specified in an insert. Most of these changes are actually to
clean up the test suite to either specify defaults to avoid warnings,
or add the warnings to the results. Related to bug #5986.
The problem was that when a QUICK_SELECT access method is chosen,
test_if_skip_sort_order() discovered that the index being used
by the quick select will not deliver tuples in sorted order.
In this case test_if_skip_sort_order() tried to change the index
used by the quick select, but it didn't properly set the other
members of the quick select, and especially the range flags of
the ranges in QUICK_SELECT::ranges.
The fix re-invokes the function SQL_SELECT::test_quick_select
to correctly create a valid QUICK_SELECT object.
identical to another in result"
According to SQL standard queries like
"select t1.a as col from t1, t2 order by a" should return an error if
both tables contain field a.
When in find_item_in_list() we are looking for item we should take into account unaliased
names of the fields but only if item with such aliased name is not found.
Also we should ignore aliases when looking for fully specified field.

Changing behaviour that MySQL server takes FORCE INDEX clause into account when optimising ORDER BY clause
Added ALL as parameter option for all group functions.
Make join handling uniform. This allows us to use ',', JOIN and INNER JOIN the same way.
