the Item_neg changes INT_RESULT with DECIMAL_RESULT when
it gets this border value, what is not necessary.

 - added join cache indication in EXPLAIN (Extra column).
 - prefer filesort over full scan over 
   index for ORDER BY (because it's faster).
 - when switching from REF to RANGE because
   RANGE uses longer key turn off sort on
   the head table only as the resulting 
   RANGE access is a candidate for join cache
   and we don't want to disable it by sorting
   on the first table only.

When checking for applicability of join cache
we must disable its usage only if there is no
temp table in use.
When a temp table is used we can use join
cache (and it will not make the result-set 
unordered) to fill the temp table. The filesort() 
operation is then applied to the data in the temp 
table and hence is not affected by join cache
usage.
Fixed by narrowing the condition for disabling 
join cache to exclude the case where temp table
is used.

Non-correlated scalar subqueries may get executed
in EXPLAIN at the optimization phase if they are
part of a right hand sargable expression.
If the scalar subquery uses a temp table to 
materialize its results it will replace the 
subquery structure from the parser with a simple
select from the materialization table.
As a result the EXPLAIN will crash as the 
temporary materialization table is not to be shown
in EXPLAIN at all.
Fixed by preserving the original query structure
right after calling optimize() for scalar subqueries
with temp tables executed during EXPLAIN.

The generic string to int conversion was used by the Item_func_signed and
the Item_func_unsigned classes to convert DATE/DATETIME values to the
SIGNED/UNSIGNED type. But this conversion produces wrong results for such
values.

Now if the item which result has to be converted can return its result as
longlong then the item->val_int() method is used to allow the item to carry
out the conversion itself and return the correct result.
This condition is checked in the Item_func_signed::val_int() and the
Item_func_unsigned::val_int() functions.

'not exists' optimization is applied.

In fact 'not exists' optimization did not work anymore after the patch
introducing the evaluate_join_record function had been applied.

Corrected the evaluate_join_record function to respect the 'not_exists'
optimization.

some rollup rows (rows with NULLs for grouping attributes) if GROUP BY
list contained constant expressions.

This happened because the results of constant expressions were not put
in the temporary table used for duplicate elimination. In fact a constant
item from the GROUP BY list of a ROLLUP query can be replaced for an
Item_null_result object when a rollup row is produced . 

Now the JOIN::rollup_init function wraps any constant item referenced in
the GROYP BY list of a ROLLUP query into an Item_func object of a special
class that is never detected as constant item. This ensures creation of
fields for such  constant items in temporary tables and guarantees right
results when the result of the rollup operation first has to be written
into a temporary table, e.g. in the cases when duplicate elimination is
required.
