/**
  @file sql/opt_explain.h
  EXPLAIN @<command@>.
 
Single table UPDATE/DELETE commands are explained by the
explain_single_table_modification() function.
 
A query expression (complete SELECT query possibly including
subqueries and unions), INSERT...SELECT and multitable UPDATE/DELETE
commands are explained like this:
 
(1) explain_query_expression()
 
Is the entry point. Forwards the job to explain_query_expression().
 
(2) explain_query_expression()
 
Is for a Query_expression, prepares, optimizes, explains one JOIN for each
"top-level" Query_blocks of the unit (like: all SELECTs of a UNION; but not
subqueries), and one or more JOIN for the post processing block Query_block of
set operations (e.g. UNION), see query_term.h; each JOIN explain (JOIN::exec())
calls explain_query_specification()
 
(3) explain_query_specification()
 
Is for a single Query_block (post processing or not, see query_term.h).
It needs a prepared and optimized JOIN, for which it builds the EXPLAIN rows.
But it also launches the EXPLAIN process for "inner units" (==subqueries of this
Query_block), by calling explain_query_expression() for each of them.

/**
  EXPLAIN functionality for Query_result_insert, Query_result_update and
  Query_result_delete.
 
  This class objects substitute Query_result_insert, Query_result_update and
  Query_result_delete data interceptor objects to implement EXPLAIN for INSERT,
  REPLACE and multi-table UPDATE and DELETE queries.
  Query_result_explain class object initializes tables like Query_result_insert,
  Query_result_update or Query_result_delete data interceptor do, but it
  suppresses table data modification by the underlying interceptor object.
  Thus, we can use Query_result_explain object in the context of EXPLAIN INSERT/
  REPLACE/UPDATE/DELETE query like we use Query_result_send in the context of
  EXPLAIN SELECT command:
  1) in presence of lex->describe flag, pass Query_result_explain object to
     execution function,
  2) it calls prepare(), optimize() and start_execution() functions
     to mark modified tables etc.
