Ok, indeed. Fixed commit message to the next:

    sql: disallow text values participate in sum() aggregate
    
    It is obvious that we can't add string with number except the case when
    string is a number literal in quotes (aka '123' or '0.5'). Before this
    patch values which can't be converted to numbers were just skipped.
    Now error is raised. This patch also removes sql_value_numeric_type()
    function since it is not used anymore: instead we invoke
    mem_apply_numeric_type().

Removed this mention at all. See above.

Moved.
