Fixes #640
Also fixes phpmyadmin/phpmyadmin#18236

A key mixing columns and functional key parts lost its expressions
when built, e.g. UNIQUE KEY u (a,(IFNULL(c,'x'))) was exported as
(a,(x)). Each functional key part is now parsed as its own entry in
Key::$columns (with optional ASC/DESC). Keys made of expressions
only still use Key::$expr, so existing behaviour stays the same.

Disclosure: most of the patch was written by Claude, then reviewed and tested by me.

Sorry, something went wrong.

Uh oh!

Fix keys mixing columns and functional key parts

After a column, a functional key part like (IFNULL(c,'x')) was
read as a column length and its expression was lost when building
the statement, so phpMyAdmin exported a broken index.

Each functional key part is now its own entry in Key::$columns.
Keys made of expressions only still use Key::$expr.

Fixes phpmyadmin#640
