When parsing statements like (SELECT .. FROM ..) ORDER BY <expr>,
there is a step LEX::add_tail_to_query_expression_body_ext_parens()
which calls LEX::wrap_unit_into_derived(). After that the statement
looks like SELECT * FROM (SELECT .. FROM ..), and parser's
Lex_order_limit_lock structure (ORDER BY <expr>) is assigned to
the new SELECT. But what is missing here is that Items in
Lex_order_limit_lock are left with their original name resolution
contexts, and fix_fields() later resolves the names incorrectly.
For example, when processing
(SELECT * FROM t1 JOIN t2 ON a=b) ORDER BY a
Item_field 'a' in the ORDER BY clause is left with the name resolution
context of the derived table (first_name_resolution_table='t1'), so
it is resolved to 't1.a', which is incorrect.
After LEX::wrap_unit_into_derived() the statement looks like
SELECT * FROM (SELECT * FROM t1 JOIN t2 ON a=b) AS '__2' ORDER BY a,
and the name resolution context for Item_field 'a' in the ORDER BY
must be set to the wrapping SELECT's one.
This commit fixes the issue by changing context for Items in
Lex_order_limit_lock after LEX::wrap_unit_into_derived().
test_if_skip_sort_order() should catch the join types JT_EQ_REF,
JT_CONST and JT_SYSTEM and skip sort order for these.
Such join types imply retrieving of a single row of data, and sorting
of a single row can always be skipped.
A subquery in form "(SELECT not_null_value LIMIT 1 OFFSET 1)" will
produce no rows which will translate into scalar SQL NULL value.
The code in Item_singlerow_subselect::fix_length_and_dec() failed to
take the LIMIT/OFFSET clause into account and used to set
item_subselect->maybe_null=0, despite that SQL NULL will be produced.
If such subselect was used in ORDER BY, this would cause a crash in
filesort() code when it would get a NULL value for a not-nullable item.
also made subselect_engine::no_tables() const function.
This patch adds for "--ps-protocol" second execution
of queries "SELECT".
Also in this patch it is added ability to disable/enable
(--disable_ps2_protocol/--enable_ps2_protocol) second
execution for "--ps-prototocol" in testcases.
Tests with checking metadata or that cannot be run with
the view-protocol are excluded from --view-protocol.
For tests that do not allow the use of an additional connection,
the util connection is disabled with "--disable_service_connection".
Also cases with bugs for --view-protocol are disabled.
If a select query contained an ORDER BY clause that followed a LIMIT clause
or an ORDER BY clause or ORDER BY with LIMIT the EXPLAIN output for the
query showed an execution plan different from that was actually executed.

For a correlated subquery filesort is executed multiple times.
During each execution, sortlength() computed total sort key length in
Sort_keys::sort_length, without resetting it first.
Eventually Sort_keys::sort_length got larger than @@sort_buffer_size, which
caused filesort() to be aborted with error.
Fixed by making sortlength() to compute lengths only during the first
invocation. Subsequent invocations return pre-computed values.

MDEV-23414 Assertion `res->charset() == item->collation.collation' failed in Type_handler_string_result::make_packed_sort_key_part
pack_sort_string() *must* take a collation from the Item, not from the
String value. Because when casting a string to _binary the original
String is not copied for performance reasons, it's reused but its
collation does not match Item's collation anymore.
Note, that String's collation cannot be simply changed to _binary,
because for an Item_string literal the original String must stay
unchanged for the duration of the query.

An overflow was happening with LONGTEXT columns, when the length was converted to the length
in the strxfrm form (mem-comparable keys).
Introduced a function to truncate the length to the max_sort_length before calculating
the length of the strxfrm form.
In the merge_buffers phase for sorting, the sort buffer size is divided between the number of chunks.
The chunks have a start and end position (m_buffer_start and m_buffer_end).
Then we read the as many records that fit in this buffer for a chunk of the file.
The issue here was we were resetting the end of buffer(m_buffer_end) to the number of bytes that was
read, this was causing a problem because with dynamic size of sort keys it is possible that later
we would not be able to accommodate even one key inside a chunk of file.
So the fix was to not reset the end of buffer for a chunk of file.
The issue here is charset for Sort_param::tmp_buffer is cleared when bzero is done for Sort_param.
Make sure to set the charset explicitly in the constructor for tmp_buffer.
For character sets and collation where character to weight mapping > 1,
there we need to make sure while creating a sort key,
a temporary buffer is created to store the value of the item by val_str function
and then copy that value back to the sort buffer.
In this case when using a priority queue Sort_param::tmp_buffer was not allocated.
Minor refactoring:
Changed Sort_param::tmp_buffer from char* to String
This task deals with packing the sort key inside the sort buffer, which would
lead to efficient usage of the memory allocated for the sort buffer.
The changes brought by this feature are
1) Sort buffers would have sort keys of variable length
2) The format for sort keys inside the sort buffer would look like
|<sort_length><null_byte><key_part1><null_byte><key_part2>.......|
sort_length is the extra bytes that are required to store the variable
length of a sort key.
3) When packing of sort key is done we store the ORIGINAL VALUES inside
the sort buffer and not the STRXFRM form (mem-comparable sort keys).
4) Special comparison function packed_keys_comparison() is introduced
to compare 2 sort keys.
