Description

As reported by Baptiste on Discord

---

Because the tuple_lookups.TupleIn.process_rhs logic doesn't replicate the None eliding logic on lookups.In.process_rhs logic the usage of TupleIn introduced in 626d77e52a3f247358514bcf51c761283968099c to resolve #36116 resulted in the unnecessary execution of queries of the form

{{{#sql
SELECT "releases_release"."version" FROM "releases_release" WHERE ("releases_release"."version") IN ((NULL))
}}}

which are never going to match because NULL != NULL in SQL.

This has to relation to #31667 which introduced this optimization for the same prefetch related optimization purposes.
