This is a consolidation issue of several other issues such as issue 13702, issue
50331 and issue 65109.

Calc interprets criteria arguments to the SUMIF, COUNTIF, COUNTBLANK, DCOUNT,
DSUM, ... functions different from Excel if the criteria is a literal "" empty
string, or a reference to a formula cell returning an empty string. Furthermore,
Excel is not even consistent in how it handles these different forms, nor how it
interprets the same form in different functions like DCOUNT and DSUM, and maybe
other D*() functions. This is a mess. See attached testcase document. Load in
both, Calc and Excel, to have a better comparison of the results and the colored
TRUE/FALSE cells.

We need to come to a conclusion how we'll handle this. Simply mimicking the
Excel behavior may be appealing but might not be the best idea.
