        Added test cases for bug #7351.
      item_cmpfunc.cc:
        Fixed bug #7351: incorrect result for a query with a
        subquery returning empty set.
        If in the predicate v IN (SELECT a FROM t WHERE cond)
        v is null, then the result of the predicate is either
        INKNOWN or FALSE. It is FALSE if the subquery returns
        an empty set.
      item_subselect.cc:
        Fixed bug #7351: incorrect result for a query with a
        subquery returning empty set.
        The problem was due to not a quite legal transformation
        for 'IN' subqueries. A subquery containing a predicate
        of the form
        v IN (SELECT a FROM t WHERE cond)
        was transformed into
        EXISTS(SELECT a FROM t WHERE cond AND (a=v OR a IS NULL)).
        Yet, this transformation is valid only if v is not null.
        If v is null, then, in the case when
        (SELECT a FROM t WHERE cond) returns an empty set the value
        of the predicate is FALSE, otherwise the result of the
        predicate is INKNOWN.
        The fix resolves this problem by changing the result
        of the transformation to
        EXISTS(SELECT a FROM t WHERE cond AND (v IS NULL OR (a=v OR a IS NULL)))
        in the case when v is nullable.
        The new transformation prevents applying the lookup
        optimization for IN subqueries. To make it still
        applicable we have to introduce guarded access methods.
