    Collect arguments' character sets together.
    We allow to apply automatic character set conversion in some cases.
    The conditions when conversion is possible are:
    - arguments A and B have different charsets
    - A wins according to coercibility rules
      (i.e. a column is stronger than a string constant,
       an explicit COLLATE clause is stronger than a column)
    - character set of A is either superset for character set of B,
      or B is a string constant which can be converted into the
      character set of A without data loss.

    If all of the above is true, then it's possible to convert
    B into the character set of A, and then compare according
    to the collation of A.

    For functions with more than two arguments:

      collect(A,B,C) ::= collect(collect(A,B),C)

    Since this function calls THD::change_item_tree() on the passed Item **
    pointers, it is necessary to pass the original Item **'s, not copies.
    Otherwise their values will not be properly restored (see BUG#20769).
    If the items are not consecutive (eg. args[2] and args[5]), use the
    item_sep argument, ie.

/***
  Instantiable classes for every MYSQL_TYPE_XXX

  There are no Type_handler_xxx for the following types:
  - MYSQL_TYPE_VAR_STRING (old VARCHAR) - mapped to MYSQL_TYPE_VARSTRING
  - MYSQL_TYPE_ENUM                     - mapped to MYSQL_TYPE_VARSTRING
  - MYSQL_TYPE_SET:                     - mapped to MYSQL_TYPE_VARSTRING

  because the functionality that currently uses Type_handler
  (e.g. hybrid type functions) does not need to distinguish between
  these types and VARCHAR.
  For example:
    CREATE TABLE t2 AS SELECT COALESCE(enum_column) FROM t1;
  creates a VARCHAR column.

  There most likely be Type_handler_enum and Type_handler_set later,
  when the Type_handler infrastructure gets used in more pieces of the code.
