Refactor the IN operator to use '= ANY()' syntax (#1236)

This change reduces use of internal function calls from the
IN implementation to optimize performance. This also changes
IN behavior to correctly return NULL upon NULL elements
included in the list that IN checks against.

Added and corrected regression tests.
