Fix MySQL BUG#52344 - Subquery materialization: Assertion if subquery in on-clause of outer join

Original fix and comments from Oysten, adjusted for the different
subquery optimization in MariaDB.
"
Problem: If tables of an outer join are constant tables,
the associated on-clause will be evaluated in the optimization
phase. If the on-clause contains a query that is to be
executed with subquery materialization, this will not work
since the infrastructure for such execution is not yet set up.
      
Solution: Do not evaluate on-clause in optimization phase if
is_expensive() returns true for this clause.  This is how the
problem is currently avoided for where-clauses.  This works
because, Item_in_subselect::is_expensive_processor returns true
if query is to be executed with subquery materialization.
"
In addition, after MWL#89, in MariaDB if the IN-EXISTS strategy
is chosen, the in-to-exists predicates are insterted after
join_read_const_table() is called, resulting in evaluation of
the subquery without the in-to-exists predicates.

  
Analysis:
The send_data method of the result sink class used to collect
data statistics about materialized subqueries incorrectly assumed
that duplicate rows are removed prior to calling send_data. As
a result the collected statistics was wrong, which resulted in
an incorrect maximal number of keys in the Ordered_key buffer.
  
Solution:
Try to insert each row into the materialized temp table before
collecting statistics, and if the insertion results in a duplicate
row, do not count the current row.

- Changed TABLE->alias to String to get fewer reallocs when alias are used.
- Preallocate some buffers

Changed some String->c_ptr() -> String->ptr() when \0 is not needed.
Fixed wrong usage of String->ptr() when we need a \0 terminated string.
Use my_strtod() instead of my_atof() to avoid having to add \0 to string.
c_ptr() -> c_ptr_safe() to avoid warnings from valgrind.

The pushdown condition for the sorted table in a query can be complemented
by the conditions from HAVING. This transformation is done in JOIN::exec
pretty late after the original pushdown condition have been saved in the
field pre_idx_push_select_cond for the sorted table. So this field must
be updated after the inclusion of the condition from HAVING.

- Make mi_open() use less stack space

Avoid doing reallocs
Prealloc some strings / provide extension allocation size to some strings

This fixes a bug that gave ER_FILE_TOO_SHORT error when scanning Aria tables.

storage/maria/ma_blockrec.c:
  Changed code so that we update share->state.state.data_file_length after page cache write is done.
  When scanning pages, stop when you are at 'data_file_length'.
  (We can't trust the bitmap as there may be reserved pages in the bitmap that are not yet written).
  This fixes a bug that gave ER_FILE_TOO_SHORT error when scanning Aria tables.

Implement os_event_wait_time() for POSIX systems.

In the purge thread, use os_event_wait_time() when sleeping rather than sleep,
and signal the event when server shuts down, so we do not need to wait for
upto 10 seconds until the purge thread wakes up.

Also fix bug that warnings that were pushed after we call set_ok_status() were
not included in the waning count sent to the client in the result packet.

Also in mysqltest, in recursive die() invocation at least print the message
before aborting.

client/mysqltest.cc:
  If we detect recursive die(), at least print the message before aborting.

  Fixed compiler error on windows (typo).

- Make optimize_wo_join_buffering() handle cases where position->records_read=0 (this
  happens for outer joins that have constant tables inside them). The number of
  0 is not correct (should be 1 because outer join will produce at least a NULL-complemented
  record) but for now we just make it work with incorrect number.

This bug in the MRR code for Maria engine caused wrong results when
MRR was used to scan ranges for each record.

Added test cases for bugs 669420 and 669423 (as a duplicate of 669420).
