    Description

      Run "mysql --column-type-info test" and execute this script:

      DROP TABLE IF EXISTS t1;
      CREATE TABLE t1 (a tinyint);
      INSERT INTO t1 VALUES(1);
       SELECT a, COALESCE(a) FROM t1;

      The output is:

      Field   1:  `a`
      Catalog:    `def`
      Database:   `test`
      Table:      `t1`
      Org_table:  `t1`
      Type:       TINY
      Collation:  binary (63)
      Length:     4
      Max_length: 1
      Decimals:   0
      Flags:      NUM 
       
      Field   2:  `COALESCE(a)`
      Catalog:    `def`
      Database:   ``
      Table:      ``
      Org_table:  ``
      Type:       TINY
      Collation:  binary (63)
      Length:     4
      Max_length: 1
      Decimals:   0
      Flags:      BINARY NUM 
       
      +------+-------------+
      | a    | COALESCE(a) |
      +------+-------------+
      |    1 |           1 |
      +------+-------------+
      1 row in set (0.00 sec)

      Notice, "Flags" is NUM for the field, but "BINARY NUM" for the function.

      It should be fixed to return the same flag sets.
