MDEV-10020 InnoDB NOT IN Query Crash When One Item Is NULL

The problem was that the loop in get_func_mm_tree()
accessed improperly initialized instances of String,
which resided in the bzero'ed part of the in_vector::base array.

Strings in in_vector::base are originally initialized
in Item_func_in::fix_length_and_dec(),
in in_vector::in_vector() using sql_calloc,
rather than using a String constructor, so their str_charset
members are originally equal to NULL.

Strings in in_vector::base are later initialized
to good values in Item_func_in::fix_length_and_dec(),
using array->set(), in this code:

      uint j=0;
      for (uint i=1 ; i < arg_count ; i++)
      {
        array->set(j,args[i]);
        if (!args[i]->null_value)                      // Skip NULL values
          j++;
        else
          have_null= 1;
      }
      if ((array->used_count= j))
        array->sort();

NULLs are not taken into account, so at the end
array->used_count can be smaller than array->count.

This patch fixes the loop in opt_range.cc, in get_func_mm_tree(),
to access only properly initialized elements in in_vector::base,
preventing access to its bzero'ed non-initialized tail.
