/*
   Aggregate two collations together taking
   into account their coercibility (aka derivation):

   0 == DERIVATION_EXPLICIT  - an explicitely written COLLATE clause
   1 == DERIVATION_NONE      - a mix of two different collations
   2 == DERIVATION_IMPLICIT  - a column
   3 == DERIVATION_COERCIBLE - a string constant

   The most important rules are:

   1. If collations are the same:
      chose this collation, and the strongest derivation.

   2. If collations are different:
     - Character sets may differ, but only if conversion without
       data loss is possible. The caller provides flags whether
       character set conversion attempts should be done. If no
       flags are substituted, then the character sets must be the same.
       Currently processed flags are:
         MY_COLL_ALLOW_SUPERSET_CONV  - allow conversion to a superset
         MY_COLL_ALLOW_COERCIBLE_CONV - allow conversion of a coercible value
     - two EXPLICIT collations produce an error, e.g. this is wrong:
       CONCAT(expr1 collate latin1_swedish_ci, expr2 collate latin1_german_ci)
     - the side with smaller derivation value wins,
       i.e. a column is stronger than a string constant,
       an explicit COLLATE clause is stronger than a column.
     - if derivations are the same, we have DERIVATION_NONE,
       we'll wait for an explicit COLLATE clause which possibly can
       come from another argument later: for example, this is valid,
       but we don't know yet when collecting the first two arguments:
         CONCAT(latin1_swedish_ci_column,
                latin1_german1_ci_column,
                expr COLLATE latin1_german2_ci)
