> A semi-join is basically a join filter. One input is "filtering" and the other one is "filtered".
> A tuple of the "filtered" input is emitted exactly once if the "filtering" input has one (ore more) tuples with matching join keys. That means that the output of a semi-join has the same type as the "filtered" input and the "filtering" input is completely discarded.
> In order to support a semi-join, we need to add an additional physical execution strategy, that ensures, that a tuple of the "filtered" input is emitted only once if the "filtering" input has more than one tuple with matching keys. Furthermore, a couple of optimizations compared to standard joins can be done such as storing only keys and not the full tuple of the "filtering" input in a hash table.
