497 **                          ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
498 **
499 ** This routine analyzes terms such as the middle term in the above example.
500 ** A WhereOrTerm object is computed and attached to the term under
501 ** analysis, regardless of the outcome of the analysis.  Hence:
502 **
503 **     WhereTerm.wtFlags   |=  TERM_ORINFO
504 **     WhereTerm.u.pOrInfo  =  a dynamically allocated WhereOrTerm object
505 **
506 ** The term being analyzed must have two or more of OR-connected subterms.
507 ** A single subterm might be a set of AND-connected sub-subterms.
508 ** Examples of terms under analysis:
509 **
510 **     (A)     t1.x=t2.y OR t1.x=t2.z OR t1.y=15 OR t1.z=t3.a+5
511 **     (B)     x=expr1 OR expr2=x OR x=expr3
512 **     (C)     t1.x=t2.y OR (t1.x=t2.z AND t1.y=15)
513 **     (D)     x=expr1 OR (y>11 AND y<22 AND z LIKE '*hello*')
514 **     (E)     (p.a=1 AND q.b=2 AND r.c=3) OR (p.x=4 AND q.y=5 AND r.z=6)
515 **     (F)     x>A OR (x=A AND y>=B)
516 **
517 ** CASE 1:
518 **
519 ** If all subterms are of the form T.C=expr for some single column of C and
520 ** a single table T (as shown in example B above) then create a new virtual
521 ** term that is an equivalent IN expression.  In other words, if the term
522 ** being analyzed is:
523 **
524 **      x = expr1  OR  expr2 = x  OR  x = expr3
525 **
526 ** then create a new virtual term like this:
527 **
528 **      x IN (expr1,expr2,expr3)
529 **
530 ** CASE 2:
531 **
532 ** If there are exactly two disjuncts and one side has x>A and the other side
533 ** has x=A (for the same x and A) then add a new virtual conjunct term to the
534 ** WHERE clause of the form "x>=A".  Example:
535 **
536 **      x>A OR (x=A AND y>B)    adds:    x>=A
537 **
538 ** The added conjunct can sometimes be helpful in query planning.
539 **
540 ** CASE 3:
541 **
542 ** If all subterms are indexable by a single table T, then set
543 **
544 **     WhereTerm.eOperator              =  WO_OR
545 **     WhereTerm.u.pOrInfo->indexable  |=  the cursor number for table T
546 **
547 ** A subterm is "indexable" if it is of the form
548 ** "T.C <op> <expr>" where C is any column of table T and
549 ** <op> is one of "=", "<", "<=", ">", ">=", "IS NULL", or "IN".
550 ** A subterm is also indexable if it is an AND of two or more
551 ** subsubterms at least one of which is indexable.  Indexable AND
552 ** subterms have their eOperator set to WO_AND and they have
553 ** u.pAndInfo set to a dynamically allocated WhereAndTerm object.
554 **
555 ** From another point of view, "indexable" means that the subterm could
556 ** potentially be used with an index if an appropriate index exists.
557 ** This analysis does not consider whether or not the index exists; that
558 ** is decided elsewhere.  This analysis only looks at whether subterms
559 ** appropriate for indexing exist.
560 **
561 ** All examples A through E above satisfy case 3.  But if a term
562 ** also satisfies case 1 (such as B) we know that the optimizer will
563 ** always prefer case 1, so in that case we pretend that case 3 is not
564 ** satisfied.
565 **
566 ** It might be the case that multiple tables are indexable.  For example,
567 ** (E) above is indexable on tables P, Q, and R.
568 **
569 ** Terms that satisfy case 3 are candidates for lookup by using
570 ** separate indices to find rowids for each subterm and composing
571 ** the union of all rowids using a RowSet object.  This is similar
572 ** to "bitmap indices" in other database engines.
573 **
574 ** OTHERWISE:
575 **
576 ** If none of cases 1, 2, or 3 apply, then leave the eOperator set to
577 ** zero.  This term is not useful for search.
