Paweł Dziepak a3746d3b05 paging: make may_need_paging() more conservative
There is a bad interaction between may_need_paging() and query result
size limiter. The former is trying to avoid the complexity of paged
queries when the number of returned rows is going to be smaller than the
page size. The latter uses the fact that paged queries need not return
all requested rows to limit the size of a query results. Since
may_need_paging() may turn a paged query into non-paged one as a side
effect it disables the oversized result protection.

This patch limits the cases when may_need_paging() disables paging to
the situations when we know for sure that query result size limiter
won't be needed, i.e.: the result is not going to contain more than one
row. If the client knows for sure that the paging is not needed and
the performance impact is worthwhile it can disable paging on its side.
Otherwise, let's default to the safer behaviour.

Fixes #3620.
