Branch: https://github.com/tarantool/tarantool/tree/np/sql-dry-run-rfc
Issue: https://github.com/tarantool/tarantool/issues/3292

In a nutshell dry-run is a way to get auxiliary (meta-) information of query
execution without direct execution itself. For instance, every DQL query
returns column's name and type alongside with tuples forming the resulting set.
Meta-information can be extended with column's nullability, collation and other
properties. This feature is required to develop SQL drivers. 

A bit of details.

There are three forms of dumped msgpack structure (and corresponding IPROTO
response format). First one relates to DQL (i.e. SELECT) queries:
METADATA : [{name, type}, {name, type}, ...], DATA : [tuple, tuple ...]

In case of dry-run, only metadata should be dumped. As a consequence, DATA
section becomes optional and depends on port settings (see new 'meta_only'
option in struct port_sql). To pass flag indicating dry-run execution,
:execute() method has been allowed to accept 'options' argument. Options can
form a map of named parameters ({'dry_run' = true}) or simply a list of
unnamed ordered values. Options are encoded with IPROTO_OPTIONS key. The only
available option now is 'dry_run'.

To execute query in dry-run mode locally separate method of box has been added:
box.dry_run("sql_string"). Current implementation does not modify box.execute()
making it accept third optional argument (except for array of bindings) - this
is to be discussed. 

Other open (or dubious) questions.

1. How to handle DML queries. Meanwhile getting meta-information of DDL queries
is likely to be useless, calculating number of affected rows in case of DML
query can be sensible. On the other hand, it can turn out to be quite
non-trivial task.  In its current state, box.dry_run("DML_Query") always
returns 0 as row count. IMHO it can be done but as a follow-up

2. Should dry_run() except for parsing also bind variables? I guess no, since
it results in byte-code (i.e. prepared statement) modification. On the other
hand, it allows setting correct type for bindings (see sql_bind_type()). By
default, all binding parameters have boolean type.

3. Interface for local call. In current implementation I've added box.dry_run()
in addition to traditional box.execute() method. Instead, we can make
box.execute() accept third argument as it is handled in net.box.

Nikita Pettik (8):
  port: increase padding of struct port
  port: move struct port_sql to box/port.h
  sql: remove sql_prepare_v2()
  sql: refactor sql_prepare() and sqlPrepare()
  sql: move sql_prepare() declaration to box/execute.h
  refactoring: use sql_prepare() and sql_execute() in tx_process_sql()
  netbox: allow passing options to :execute()
  sql: introduce dry-run execution
