MDEV-26825 Bogus error for query with two usage of CTE referring another CTE
This bug affected queries with two or more references to a CTE referring another CTE if the definition of the latter contained an invocation of a stored function that used a base table. The bug could lead to a bogus error message or to an assertion failure. For any non-first reference to CTE cte1 With_element::clone_parsed_spec() is called that parses the specification of cte1 to construct the unit structure for this usage of cte1. If cte1 refers to another CTE cte2 outside of the specification of cte1 then With_element::clone_parsed_spec() has to be called for cte2 as well. This call is made by the function LEX::resolve_references_to_cte() within the invocation of the function With_element::clone_parsed_spec() for cte1. When the specification of a CTE is parsed all table references encountered in it must be added to the global list of table references for the query. As the specification for the non-first usage of a CTE is parsed at a recursive call of the parser the function With_element::clone_parsed_spec() invoked at this recursive call should takes care of appending the list of table references encountered in the specification of this CTE cte1 to the list of table references created for the query. And it should do it after the call of LEX::resolve_references_to_cte() that resolves references to CTEs defined outside of the specification of cte1 because this call may invoke the parser again for specifications of other CTEs and the table references from their specifications must ultimately appear in the global list of table references of the query. The code of With_element::clone_parsed_spec() misplaced the call of LEX::resolve_references_to_cte(). As a result LEX::query_tables_last used for the query that was supposed to point to the field 'next_global' of the last element in the global list of table references actually pointed to 'next_global' of the previous element. The above inconsistency certainly caused serious problems when table references used in the stored functions invoked in cloned specifications of CTEs were added to the global list of table references.
