MDEV-28621: group by optimization incorrectly removing subquery where subject buried in a function
Workaround patch: Do not remove GROUP BY clause when it has subquer(ies) in it. remove_redundant_subquery_clauses() removes redundant GROUP BY clause from queries in form: expr IN (SELECT no_aggregates GROUP BY ...) expr {CMP} {ALL|ANY|SOME} (SELECT no_aggregates GROUP BY ...) This hits problems when the GROUP BY clause itself has subquer(y/ies). This patch is just a workaround: it disables removal of GROUP BY clause if the clause has one or more subqueries in it. Tests: - subselect_elimination.test has all known crashing cases. - subselect4.result, insert_select.result are updated. Note that in some cases results of SELECT are changed too (not just EXPLAINs). These are caused by non-deterministic SQL: when running a query like: x > ANY( SELECT col1 FROM t1 GROUP BY constant_expression) without removing the GROUP BY, the executor is free to pick the value of t1.col1 from any row in the GROUP BY group (denote it $COL1_VAL). Then, it computes x > ANY(SELECT $COL1_VAL). When running the same query and removing the GROUP BY: x > ANY( SELECT col1 FROM t1) the executor will actually check all rows of t1.
