Task Description

Fixed a bug in the optimizer's selectivity estimation on Windows where a NULL opt_stat_manager would cause column metadata initialization to fail, leading to uninitialized column_id_ values. This resulted in incorrect join cardinality estimates (e.g., EST.ROWS=9 instead of the expected EST.ROWS=5).

Solution Description

In OptTableMeta::init_column_meta (src/sql/optimizer/ob_opt_selectivity.cpp:444-446), when get_opt_stat_manager returns NULL on Windows (statistics module not initialized), the code previously set ret = OB_ERR_UNEXPECTED and returned early. This skipped the subsequent refine_column_meta loop (lines 485-489) that sets the column_id for each metadata entry.

The fix adds a #ifdef _WIN32 fallback for the NULL manager check, making it consistent with the existing Windows fallback path for batch_get_column_stats failure (lines 456-466). This ensures the refine_column_meta loop executes, properly initializing the column_metas_ array.

Passed Regressions

Local build was not performed due to the time required for a full Windows cmake configuration and compilation. The fix is in pure C++ logic within the optimizer's selectivity estimation layer and has no runtime dependencies. The change will be validated by Farm CI tests against sfu.for_update_multi_part_skip_locked.

Two-part fix for Windows where opt_stat_manager is unavailable
1. In ObJoinOrder::get_used_stat_partitions: When opt_stat_manager is NULL
on Windows, set get_stat=true to skip stat retrieval and return success
instead of OB_ERR_UNEXPECTED. This prevents the caller from aborting
before add_base_table_meta_info populates basic_table_metas.

2. In OptTableMeta::init_column_meta: When opt_stat_manager or session_info
is NULL on Windows, populate column metadata with defaults via
set_default_meta instead of returning OB_ERR_UNEXPECTED.

Root cause: On Windows, NULL opt_stat_manager caused an error cascade
get_used_stat_partitions returns error -> basic_table_metas stays empty ->
get_column_basic_from_meta can't find column metadata -> falls through to
get_var_basic_default which sets ndv=1.0 -> join selectivity ~0.98 ->
EST.ROWS=9 (3*3*0.98) instead of correct value.

When update_table_meta_info copies table meta entries from
basic_table_metas_ to update_table_metas_ via copy_table_meta_info
it uses push_back which can create multiple entries for the same
table_id with different row counts (e.g. rows=1 from default stats
rows=3 from storage estimation).

The original get_table_meta_by_table_id returned only the first
matching entry, which could be a stale entry with rows_=1 leading
to ndv=1, join selectivity=1.0, and inflated EXPLAIN EST.ROWS.

Fix by iterating all entries and returning the one with the highest
row count, ensuring join selectivity uses the most accurate estimate.

Fixes DIMA bug: 2026042800115792720
(EXPLAIN JOIN EST.ROWS=9 instead of 3 on multi-part PK tables)
