MDEV-9712 Performance degradation of nested NULLIF

10.1 introduced a problem:
Execution time for various recursive stages
(walk, update_used_table, and propagate_equal_fields)
in NULLIF is O(recursion_level^2), because complexity is
doubled on every recursion level when we copy args[0] to args[2].

This change fixes to avoid unnecessary recursion in:
- Item_func_nullif::walk
- Item_func_nullif::update_used_tables
- Item_func_nullif::propagate_equal_fields
when possible.
