Alexander Barkov 74891ed257 MDEV-11514, MDEV-11497, MDEV-11554, MDEV-11555 - IN and CASE type aggregation problems
This patch fixes a number of data type aggregation problems in IN and CASE:
- MDEV-11497 Wrong result for (int_expr IN (mixture of signed and unsigned expressions))
- MDEV-11514 IN with a mixture of TIME and DATETIME returns a wrong result
- MDEV-11554 Wrong result for CASE on a mixture of signed and unsigned expressions
- MDEV-11555 CASE with a mixture of TIME and DATETIME returns a wrong result

1. The problem reported in MDEV-11514 and MDEV-11555 was in the wrong assumption
that items having the same cmp_type() can reuse the same cmp_item instance.
So Item_func_case and Item_func_in used a static array of cmp_item*,
one element per one XXX_RESULT.

TIME and DATETIME cannot reuse the same cmp_item, because arguments of
these types are compared very differently. TIME and DATETIME must have
different instances in the cmp_item array. Reusing the same cmp_item
for TIME and DATETIME leads to unexpected result and unexpected warnings.

Note, after adding more data types soon (e.g. INET6), the problem would
become more serious, as INET6 will most likely have STRING_RESULT, but
it won't be able to reuse the same cmp_item with VARCHAR/TEXT.

This patch introduces a new class Predicant_to_list_comparator,
which maintains an array of cmp_items, one element per distinct
Type_handler rather than one element per XXX_RESULT.

2. The problem reported in MDEV-11497 and MDEV-11554 happened because
Item_func_in and Item_func_case did not take into account the fact
that UNSIGNED and SIGNED values must be compared as DECIMAL rather than INT,
because they used item_cmp_type() to aggregate the arguments.
The relevant code now resides in Predicant_to_list_comparator::add_value()
and uses Type_handler_hybrid_field_type::aggregate_for_comparison(),
like Item_func_between does.

This directory contains a test suite for the MySQL daemon. To run
the currently existing test cases, simply execute ./mysql-test-run in
this directory. It will fire up the newly built mysqld and test it.

Note that you do not have to have to do "make install", and you could
actually have a co-existing MySQL installation. The tests will not
conflict with it. To run the test suite in a source directory, you
must do make first.

All tests must pass. If one or more of them fail on your system, please
read the following manual section for instructions on how to report the
problem:

https://mariadb.com/kb/en/reporting-bugs

If you want to use an already running MySQL server for specific tests,
use the --extern option to mysql-test-run. Please note that in this mode,
the test suite expects you to provide the names of the tests to run.
For example, here is the command to run the "alias" and "analyze" tests
with an external server:

mysql-test-run --extern socket=/tmp/mysql.sock alias analyze

To match your setup, you might also need to provide --socket, --user, and
other relevant options.

With no test cases named on the command line, mysql-test-run falls back
to the normal "non-extern" behavior. The reason for this is that some
tests cannot run with an external server.

You can create your own test cases. To create a test case, create a new
file in the t subdirectory using a text editor. The file should have a .test
extension. For example:

 xemacs t/test_case_name.test

 In the file, put a set of SQL statements that create some tables,
 load test data, and run some queries to manipulate it.

 We would appreciate it if you name your test tables t1, t2, t3 ... (to not
 conflict too much with existing tables).

 Your test should begin by dropping the tables you are going to create and
 end by dropping them again.  This ensures that you can run the test over
 and over again.
 
 If you are using mysqltest commands (like result file names) in your
 test case, you should create the result file as follows:

 mysql-test-run --record test_case_name

 or

 mysqltest --record < t/test_case_name.test

 If you only have a simple test cases consisting of SQL statements and
 comments, you can create the test case in one of the following ways:

 mysql-test-run --record test_case_name

 mysql test < t/test_case_name.test > r/test_case_name.result

 mysqltest --record --database test --result-file=r/test_case_name.result < t/test_case_name.test

 When this is done, take a look at r/test_case_name.result
 - If the result is incorrect, you have found a bug. In this case, you should
   edit the test result to the correct results so that we can verify
   that the bug is corrected in future releases.

If you want to submit your test case you can send it 
to maria-developers@lists.launchpad.com or attach it to a bug report on
http://mariadb.org/jira/.

If the test case is really big or if it contains 'not public' data,
then put your .test file and .result file(s) into a tar.gz archive,
add a README that explains the problem, ftp the archive to
ftp://ftp.askmonty.org/private and submit a report to
http://mariadb.org/jira about it.
