Commit summary:
Support abstraction for 'NOT IN' SQL structure
Following a live discussion with Catrope.
When using Database::makeList() in LIST_AND or LIST_OR modes, you can now
suffix the field name with an exclamation mark. It will negate the logical
boolean.
Example:
$db->makeList( array( 'field!' => array( 1,2,3 ) );
outputs:
'field' NOT IN ('1', '2', '3' );
$db->makeList( array( 'foo!' => array( 777 ) ) );
outputs:
'foo' =! 777
(note: tests not ran, please run them and ammend them)
Comment:
I think I have used that syntax in other commits. Will have to revert them too.
Anyway, if it does no harm we can keep it in 1.18. The RFC did not raise any
objection although I suspect Brion did not have a look at it (he is probably
over busy).
