Wrong result upon LEFT JOIN and NULL comparison with not_null_range_scan

    Description

      Possibly related to MDEV-21781

      CREATE TABLE t1 (a INT, b INT) ENGINE=MyISAM;
      INSERT INTO t1 VALUES  (10,1),(null,2);
       
      CREATE TABLE t2 (pk INT PRIMARY KEY) ENGINE=MyISAM;
      INSERT INTO t2 VALUES (1),(2);
       
      SELECT t1.b FROM t1 LEFT JOIN t2 ON t1.a = t2.pk WHERE t1.a IS NULL ORDER BY t1.b;
      SET optimizer_switch= 'not_null_range_scan=on';
      SELECT t1.b FROM t1 LEFT JOIN t2 ON t1.a = t2.pk WHERE t1.a IS NULL ORDER BY t1.b;
       
      DROP TABLE t1, t2;
      

      Without not_null_range_scan the query returns a result set (the expected result). With not_null_range_scan it returns an empty set (wrong).

      SELECT t1.b FROM t1 LEFT JOIN t2 ON t1.a = t2.pk WHERE t1.a IS NULL ORDER BY t1.b;
      b
      2
      SET optimizer_switch= 'not_null_range_scan=on';
      SELECT t1.b FROM t1 LEFT JOIN t2 ON t1.a = t2.pk WHERE t1.a IS NULL ORDER BY t1.b;
      b
      DROP TABLE t1, t2;
      

      Same with the plans:
