Don't let transform_null_equals=on affect CASE foo WHEN NULL ... constructs.
transform_null_equals is only supposed to affect "foo = NULL" expressions given directly by the user, not the internal "foo = NULL" expression generated from CASE-WHEN. This fixes bug #6242, reported by Sergey. Backpatch to all supported branches.
