Fixed an issue with databases becoming unrecoverable when upgrading to version 8.0 if any tables contained shard keys using computed columns that call JSON_EXTRACT_STRING.

Added support for optimizing cases of IN joins in subselects in the project list.

Added session variable named subquery_merge_with_outer_joins that fine-tunes the behavior of the rewrite SubQueryMerge. If the variable is set to ON: always merge the sub-select with outer join(s). If the variable is set to HEURISTIC: check to see if merging the sub-select with outer join(s) will cause negative performance for the overall query. If the variable is set to OFF: don’t merge sub-selects with outer join(s). If the variable is set to AUTO (this is the default): For SingleStore 7.5 and previous versions, AUTO will behave like ON. For SingleStore versions after 7.5, AUTO will behave like HEURISTIC.

Fixed auto histograms to determine when to build new histograms based on both master and child aggregators.

Added a new system variable called parametrizer_query_max_params which allows users to set the maximum number of scalar constants a single query can contain. Any query with more than parametrizer_query_max_params will be failed with an error. The default value is 1048576.

Fixed an issue where the exporter process was not being cleaned up when memsqld is shut down.
