Marginal hack to merge adjacent ReleaseBuffer/ReadBuffer calls into

in btree and rtree, might as well do it here too.

Adjust constant-folding of CASE expressions so that the simple comparison
...
form of CASE (eg, CASE 0 WHEN 1 THEN ...) can be constant-folded as it
was in 7.4. Also, avoid constant-folding result expressions that are
certainly unreachable --- the former coding was a bit cavalier about this
and could generate unexpected results for all-constant CASE expressions.
Add regression test cases. Per report from Vlad Marchenko.
