+ * Rewrites scalar sub-queries in the SELECT list whose single select item is
+ * an aggregate function whose arguments reference only outer columns. Per
the
+ * SQL standard, such aggregates belong to the outer query.
+ *
+ * <p>The algorithm is:
+ * <ol>
+ * <li>For each item in the SELECT list, check whether it is a scalar
+ * sub-query, optionally wrapped in {@code AS} or {@code WITH}.
+ * <li>Inside the sub-query, require the SELECT list to contain exactly one
+ * item, and that item to be an aggregate function call.
+ * <li>Require every argument of the aggregate to reference only columns from
+ * the outer query (no inner columns), and to contain no nested sub-queries.
+ * <li>If all conditions hold, lift the aggregate out of the sub-query: keep
+ * the aggregate in the outer SELECT list, and replace the original sub-query
+ * with {@code (SELECT 1 FROM ... LIMIT 1)}. The result is equivalent because
+ * the scalar sub-query contributes a factor of one per outer row, while the
+ * aggregate is evaluated over the outer rows.
+ * <li>If the outer query becomes an aggregate query as a result, upgrade its
+ * SELECT clause scope from {@link SelectScope} to
+ * {@link AggregatingSelectScope}.
+ * </ol>
+ *
+ * <p>For example,
+ * <blockquote><pre>SELECT (SELECT sum(a) FROM t LIMIT 1) FROM
aa</pre></blockquote>
Review Comment:
OK, The Javadoc examples for `rewriteOuterAggregatesInSelectList` have been
improved, explicitly stating that `a` comes from `aa` and `x` comes from `t`.
Boundary tests have been added to `agg.iq`: Inner table empty → 1 row NULL
Outer table empty → 1 row NULL (because the outer aggregation has no input
rows)
and postgresql test also updated (result is also keep the same with agg.iq)
