This patch allows the server to open old tables that have
"bad" generated columns (i.e. indexed virtual generated columns,
persistent generated columns) that depend on sql_mode,
for general things like SELECT, INSERT, DROP, etc.
Warning are issued in such cases.
Only these commands are now disallowed and return an error:
- CREATE TABLE introducing a "bad" generated column
- ALTER TABLE introducing a "bad" generated column
- CREATE INDEX introdicing a "bad" generated column
(i.e. adding an index on a virtual generated column
that depends on sql_mode).
Note, these commands are allowed:
- ALTER TABLE removing a "bad" generate column
- ALTER TABLE removing an index from a "bad" virtual generated column
- DROP INDEX removing an index from a "bad" virtual generated column
but only if the table does not have any "bad" columns as a result.
