Bug #77707 Right outer join return wrong result when literal expression involved.

Description:
Right outer join return wrong result when literal expression involved.

select t1.c1, t1.c2, t1.c3 from
(select rnum as c1, 1 as c3, cchar as c2 from tchar where rnum in (3)) t1
right outer join
(select rnum as c1, 2 as c3, cchar as c2 from tchar where rnum in (3, 4)) t2
on t1.c1 = t2.c1

In 5.7.7, the second column of row 2 return 1
In 5.6 and 5.5, the second column of row 2 return expected <null>

How to repeat:
CREATE TABLE tchar
(
   rnum int NOT NULL,
   cchar char(32)
)
;

INSERT INTO tchar (rnum,cchar) VALUES (0,null);
INSERT INTO tchar (rnum,cchar) VALUES (1,'                                ');
INSERT INTO tchar (rnum,cchar) VALUES (2,'                                ');
INSERT INTO tchar (rnum,cchar) VALUES (3,'BB                              ');
INSERT INTO tchar (rnum,cchar) VALUES (4,'EE                              ');
INSERT INTO tchar (rnum,cchar) VALUES (5,'FF                              ');

Thank you for the bug report.
