Subject: [PATCH 18/40] Optimize: Skip value condition on invalid flags.

HandlerHelper::itemWithFlagsCount gets called quite often apparently
and I noticed that it was relatively slow from the Query Debugger
in Akonadi Console. EXPLAIN'ing the query showed that it was using
a slow-path for the WHERE FOO AND (BAR OR ASDF) condition. Here,
ASDF was always id = -1, the id of the $IGNORED flag, which
I apparently don't have. Getting rid of that condition simplifies
the query to WHERE FOO AND BAR, which is apparently much better
optimizable. Before, the query often showed a runtime of ~15ms.
Now it is down to ~9ms.
