Description:
This was reported as part of #280 by Jocelyn Fournier, but is a different
problem:

Call with subselect crashed too :

call u((SELECT 1))|

Stack trace :

How to repeat:
create procedure p(x int) insert test.t1 values ("foo", x);

call p((select 1));

This is partially fixed:

call u((select 1))  now works.

But this still crashes (should either work or return an error message):

call u((select x from table limit 1))

This should always return an error message:

call u((select x,y from table limit 1))  # 2 fields

This should either always return an error message,
or only when returning more than one row:

call u((select x from table))            # 1+ rows?

If nothing else works, simply return an error message for
all subselects, rather than getting core dumps for some.
