Srinath Shankar 74a975c45b IMPALA-862: count(x) may return null when a similar count(distinct x) is also used ...

count(x) with no distinct and no group-by expressions returns NULL on empty input
if other distinct aggs (e.g. COUNT(distinct x) are present.
This happens because the COUNT is transformed to SUM(COUNT()),
with the inner COUNT being evaluated WITH a group-by expression (e.g. x).
SUM over empty input returns NULL, but COUNT should return 0.

This patch fixes this by replacing COUNT with zeroifnull(COUNT) before AggregateInfo
is generated if there are distinct aggs and no group-bys. The logic in AggregateInfo
itself has not been modified.
