Group by 语句用于结合聚合函数（如count，sum，avg，max，min），根据一个或多个列对结果集进行分组。
（1）去掉重复值：根据group by后面的关键字只显示一行结果；
（2）mysql5.7默认开启参数ONLY_FULL_GROUP_BY，表示完全group by，即select后面跟的列group by后面也必须有，但是group by后面跟的列，select后面不一定需要出现；

8.2.1.15 GROUP BY Optimization
MySQL 5.7有关group by说明的片段如下：
In MySQL, GROUP BY is used for sorting, so the server may also apply ORDER BY optimizations to grouping. However, relying on implicit or explicit GROUP BY sorting is deprecated. See Section 8.2.1.14, “ORDER BY Optimization”.
