Implement subselects in target lists. Also, relax requirement that
subselects can only appear on the righthand side of a binary operator. That's still true for quantified predicates like x = ANY (SELECT ...), but a subselect that delivers a single result can now appear anywhere in an expression. This is implemented by changing EXPR_SUBLINK sublinks to represent just the (SELECT ...) expression, without any 'left hand side' or combining operator --- so they're now more like EXISTS_SUBLINK. To handle the case of '(x, y, z) = (SELECT ...)', I added a new sublink type MULTIEXPR_SUBLINK, which acts just like EXPR_SUBLINK used to. But the grammar will only generate one for a multiple-left-hand-side row expression.
