/**
  Resolve the name of a column reference.

  The method resolves the column reference represented by 'this' as a column
  present in one of: FROM clause, SELECT clause, GROUP BY clause of a query
  Q, or in outer queries that contain Q.

  The name resolution algorithm used is (where [T_j] is an optional table
  name that qualifies the column name):

  @code
    resolve_column_reference([T_j].col_ref_i)
    {
      search for a column or derived column named col_ref_i
      [in table T_j] in the FROM clause of Q;

      if such a column is NOT found AND    // Lookup in outer queries.
         there are outer queries
      {
        for each outer query Q_k beginning from the inner-most one
        {
          search for a column or derived column named col_ref_i
          [in table T_j] in the FROM clause of Q_k;

          if such a column is not found
            Search for a column or derived column named col_ref_i
            [in table T_j] in the SELECT and GROUP clauses of Q_k.
        }
      }
    }
  @endcode

    Notice that compared to Item_ref::fix_fields, here we first search the FROM
    clause, and then we search the SELECT and GROUP BY clauses.
