Fix "cannot accept a set" error when only some arms of a CASE return a set.
In commit c1352052ef1d4eeb2eb1d822a207ddc2d106cb13, I implemented an
optimization that assumed that a function's argument expressions would
either always return a set (ie multiple rows), or always not. This is
wrong however: we allow CASE expressions in which some arms return a set
of some type and others just return a scalar of that type. There may be
other examples as well. To fix, replace the run-time test of whether an
argument returned a set with a static precheck (expression_returns_set).
This adds a little bit of query startup overhead, but it seems barely
measurable.
Per bug #8228 from David Johnston. This has been broken since 8.0,
so patch all supported branches.
