Right now if there is a global scope that applies an order to the query, it will break counts and other aggregates when MySQL is in strict mode and there is no group-by in place (see issues like 15232, 18789, 14997, etc). This change is to fix that without having to set MySQL to non-strict mode or tell users to change their strict mode flags. It's also a low-impact change - if there are no groupings on the query, then any order is irrelevant anyway so this does not have any side-effects.
