Bug#28208: Wrong result of a non-const STRING function with a const DATETIME

function.

A wrong  condition was used to check that the
Arg_comparator::can_compare_as_dates() function calculated the value of the
string constant. When comparing a non-const STRING function with a constant
DATETIME function it leads to saving an arbitrary value as a cached value of
the DATETIME function.

Now the Arg_comparator::set_cmp_func() function initializes the const_value
variable to the impossible DATETIME value (-1) and this const_value is
cached only if it was changed by the Arg_comparator::can_compare_as_dates()
function.
