Predicate for checking an expression is

Predicates for checking an expression is or is not a member of a specified set of values.
The two most common forms are:
* `[:in :col [val1 val2 ...]]` where the `valN` can be arbitrary expressions,
* `[:in :col {:select ...}]` where the `SELECT` specifies a single column.
* `[:in :col [val1 val2 ...]]` or `[:not-in :col [val1 val2 ...]]` where the `valN` can be arbitrary expressions,
* `[:in :col {:select ...}]` or `[:not-in :col {:select ...}]` where the `SELECT` specifies a single column.
`:col` could be an arbitrary SQL expression (but is most
commonly just a column name).

The former produces an inline vector expression with the
values resolved as regular SQL expressions (i.e., with
literal values lifted out as parameters): `col IN [?, ?, ...]`
or `col NOT IN [?, ?, ...]`
The latter produces a sub-select, as expected: `col IN (SELECT ...)`
or `col NOT IN (SELECT ...)`
You can also specify the set of values via a named parameter:
* `[:in :col :?values]` where `:params {:values [1 2 ...]}` is provided to `format` in the options.
* `[:in :col :?values]` or `[:not-in :col :?values]` where `:params {:values [1 2 ...]}` is provided to `format` in the options.
In this case, the named parameter is expanded directly when
`:in` is formatted to obtain the sequence of values (which
`:in` (or `:not-in`) is formatted to obtain the sequence of values (which
must be _sequential_, not a Clojure set). That means you
cannot use this approach and also specify `:cache` -- see
[cache in All the Options](options.md#cache) for more details.

you need to specify the columns (or expressions) using the
`:composite` special syntax:
* `[:in [:composite :col1 :col2] ...]`
* `[:in [:composite :col1 :col2] ...]` or `[:not-in [:composite :col1 :col2] ...]`
This produces `(col1, col2) IN ...`
This produces `(col1, col2) IN ...` or `(col1, col2) NOT IN ...`
> Note: This is a change from HoneySQL 1.x which accepted a sequence of column names but required more work for arbitrary expressions.
