Bug#16540042: WRONG QUERY RESULT WHEN USING RANGE OVER

              PARTIAL INDEX

Consider the following table definition:

CREATE TABLE t (
  my_col CHAR(10),
  ...
  INDEX my_idx (my_col(1))
)

The my_idx index is not able to distinguish between rows with
equal first-character my_col-values (e.g. "f", "foo", "fee").

Prior to this CS, the range optimizer would translate

"WHERE my_col NOT IN ('f', 'h')" into (optimizer trace syntax)

"ranges": [
  "NULL < my_col < f",
  "f < my_col"
]

But this was not correct because the rows with values "foo" 
and "fee" would not belong to any of those ranges. However, the
predicate "my_col != 'f' AND my_col != 'h'" would translate
to 

"ranges": [
  "NULL < my_col"
]

because get_mm_leaf() changes from "<" to "<=" for partial
keyparts. This CS changes the range optimizer implementation 
for NOT IN to behave like a conjunction of NOT EQUAL: it 
replaces "<" with "<=" for all but the first range when the
keypart is partial.

If the interval is over a partial keypart, the
interval must be "c_{i-1} <= X < c_i" instead of
"c_{i-1} < X < c_i". Reason:
Consider a table with a column "my_col VARCHAR(3)",
and an index with definition
"INDEX my_idx my_col(1)". If the table contains rows
with my_col values "f" and "foo", the index will not
distinguish the two rows.
Note that tree_or() below will effectively merge
this range with the range created for c_{i-1} and
we'll eventually end up with only one range:
"NULL < X".
Partitioning indexes are never partial.
