 fixed coverage of out-of-mem errors

The LEAST/GREATEST functions compared DATE/DATETIME values as
strings which in some cases could lead to a wrong result.

A new member function called cmp_datetimes() is added to the
Item_func_min_max class. It compares arguments in DATETIME context
and returns index of the least/greatest argument.
The Item_func_min_max::fix_length_and_dec() function now detects when
arguments should be compared in DATETIME context and sets the newly
added flag compare_as_dates. It indicates that the cmp_datetimes() function
should be called to get a correct result.
Item_func_min_max::val_xxx() methods are corrected to call the
cmp_datetimes() function when needed.
Objects of the Item_splocal class now stores and reports correct original
field type.

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.

INSERT...ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE may cause error 1032: 
"Can't find record in ..." if we are inserting into
InnoDB table unique index of partial key with
underlying UTF-8 string field.

This error occurs because INSERT...ON DUPLICATE uses a wrong
procedure to copy string fields of multi-byte character sets
for index search.

This bug occurs when error message length exceeds allowed limit: my_error()
function outputs "%s" sequences instead of long string arguments.

Formats like %-.64s are very common in errmsg.txt files, however my_error()
function simply ignores precision of those formats.

The BETWEEN function was comparing DATE/DATETIME values either as ints or as
strings. Both methods have their disadvantages and may lead to a wrong
result.

Now BETWEEN function checks whether all of its arguments has the STRING result
types and at least one of them is a DATE/DATETIME item. If so it sets up
two Arg_comparator obects to compare with the compare_datetime() comparator
and uses them to compare such items.

Added two Arg_comparator object members and one flag to the
Item_func_between class for the correct DATE/DATETIME comparison.
The Item_func_between::fix_length_and_dec() function now detects whether
it's used for DATE/DATETIME comparison and sets up newly added Arg_comparator
objects to do this.
The Item_func_between::val_int() now uses Arg_comparator objects to perform
correct DATE/DATETIME comparison.
The owner variable of the Arg_comparator class now can be set to NULL if the
caller wants to handle NULL values by itself.
Now the Item_date_add_interval::get_date() function ajusts cached_field type according to the detected type.

DATE and DATETIME can be compared either as strings or as int. Both
methods have their disadvantages. Strings can contain valid DATETIME value
but have insignificant zeros omitted thus became non-comparable with
other DATETIME strings. The comparison as int usually will require conversion
from the string representation and the automatic conversion in most cases is
carried out in a wrong way thus producing wrong comparison result. Another
problem occurs when one tries to compare DATE field with a DATETIME constant.
The constant is converted to DATE losing its precision i.e. losing time part.

This fix addresses the problems described above by adding a special
DATE/DATETIME comparator. The comparator correctly converts DATE/DATETIME
string values to int when it's necessary, adds zero time part (00:00:00)
to DATE values to compare them correctly to DATETIME values. Due to correct
conversion malformed DATETIME string values are correctly compared to other
DATE/DATETIME values.

As of this patch a DATE value equals to DATETIME value with zero time part.
For example '2001-01-01' equals to '2001-01-01 00:00:00'.

The compare_datetime() function is added to the Arg_comparator class.
It implements the correct comparator for DATE/DATETIME values.
Two supplementary functions called get_date_from_str() and get_datetime_value()
are added. The first one extracts DATE/DATETIME value from a string and the
second one retrieves the correct DATE/DATETIME value from an item.
The new Arg_comparator::can_compare_as_dates() function is added and used
to check whether two given items can be compared by the compare_datetime()
comparator.
Two caching variables were added to the Arg_comparator class to speedup the
DATE/DATETIME comparison.
One more store() method was added to the Item_cache_int class to cache int
values.
The new is_datetime() function was added to the Item class. It indicates
whether the item returns a DATE/DATETIME value.
