/**
  @file

  Optimising of MIN(), MAX() and COUNT(*) queries without 'group by' clause
  by replacing the aggregate expression with a constant.  

  Given a table with a compound key on columns (a,b,c), the following
  types of queries are optimised (assuming the table handler supports
  the required methods)

  @verbatim
  SELECT COUNT(*) FROM t1[,t2,t3,...]
  SELECT MIN(b) FROM t1 WHERE a=const
  SELECT MAX(c) FROM t1 WHERE a=const AND b=const
  SELECT MAX(b) FROM t1 WHERE a=const AND b<const
  SELECT MIN(b) FROM t1 WHERE a=const AND b>const
  SELECT MIN(b) FROM t1 WHERE a=const AND b BETWEEN const AND const
  SELECT MAX(b) FROM t1 WHERE a=const AND b BETWEEN const AND const
  @endverbatim

  Instead of '<' one can use '<=', '>', '>=' and '=' as well.
  Instead of 'a=const' the condition 'a IS NULL' can be used.

  If all selected fields are replaced then we will also remove all
  involved tables and return the answer without any join. Thus, the
  following query will be replaced with a row of two constants:
  @verbatim
  SELECT MAX(b), MIN(d) FROM t1,t2 
    WHERE a=const AND b<const AND d>const
  @endverbatim
  (assuming a index for column d of table t2 is defined)

        occur only in conjucts mentioned above.
     -# each of k first components the index is not partial, i.e. is not
        defined on a fixed length proper prefix of the field.

     If such an index exists the function through the ref parameter

     the length of first (k-1) components of the key and flags saying
     how to apply the key for the search max/min value.
