Bug#57278: Crash on min/max + with date out of range.
MySQL officially supports DATE values starting from 1000-01-01. This is enforced for int values, but not for string values, thus one could easily insert '0001-01-01' value. Int values are checked by number_to_datetime function and Item_cache_datetime::val_str uses it to fill MYSQL_TIME struct out of cached int value. This leads to the scenario where Item_cache_datetime caches a non-null datetime value and when it tries to convert it from int to string number_to_datetime function treats the value as out-of-range and returns an error and Item_cache_datetime::val_str returns NULL for a non-null value. Due to this inconsistency server crashes. Now number_to_datetime allows DATE values below 1000-01-01 if the TIME_FUZZY_DATE flag is set. Better NULL handling for Item_cache_datetime. Added the Item_cache_datetime::store function to reset str_value_cached flag when an item is stored.
