/*
**  INIT_QT -- initialize query tree
**
**	This routine saves and initializes the global portion
**	of a query tree.  It must be called before doing any
**	creation of a query tree which depends on or modifies
**	the global portion of a query tree.
**
**	The global portion of a query tree includes the range
**	table, the query mode, etc.
**
**	The algorithm for saving the query tree global portion
**	("Qt") is somewhat obscure.  To understand it, it is
**	critical to be clear that every query tree is associated
**	with a context, but not every context is associated with
**	a query tree.  We further constrain that a context
**	is associated with at most one query tree; if more than
**	one is needed in a single context, it is always safe
**	to reuse the previous one.
**
**	When we allocate a new context (in 'initp'), the current
**	Qt (if in use) is associated with the save image of the
**	context.  When we call init_qt, we check to see if such
**	an association exists.  If so, we save Qt, and adjust
**	the old context to point to the save image of Qt.  When
**	we call init_qt again, Qt will be active, but not
**	associated with a context save image; thus, we do not
**	save Qt.  On context restore, if it has a pointer to a
**	saved Qt, we restore that also.
**
**	Parameters:
**		none.
**	
**	Returns:
**		none
**	
**	Side Effects:
**		Qt possibly gets saved in an area set up by
**			calling malloc.
**	
**	Trace Flags:
**		none
