The code that chooses between materialization of a non-correlated
IN subquery and its transformation into an EXISTS correlated
subquery assumes that the execution plan for the outer select
has been already built. However it was not always so if subqueries
occurred in the expressions used for ref access to tables of
the outer select. A call of the function create_ref_for_key() in
get_best_combination() could trigger a premature execution of
the above mentioned code when the execution plan structures for
the outer select were not fully built. This could cause a crash
of the server.

The fix postpones the calls of create_ref_for_key() until the
structures for the execution plan is fully built.
