The test is for a bug that was introduced in MySQL 5.7.18
but not MariaDB 10.2, because MariaDB did not merge the change
that was considered incomplete and too risky for a GA release:
Bug#23481444 OPTIMISER CALL ROW_SEARCH_MVCC() AND READ THE INDEX
APPLIED BY UNCOMMITTED ROWS
So, we are only merging the test changes from the bug fix in MySQL 5.7.19,
not any code changes:

Bug #25793677 INNODB: FAILING ASSERTION: CLUST_TEMPL_FOR_SEC || LEN
* remove old 5.2+ InnoDB support for virtual columns
* enable corresponding parts of the innodb-5.7 sources
* copy corresponding test cases from 5.7
* copy detailed Alter_inplace_info::HA_ALTER_FLAGS flags from 5.7
- and more detailed detection of changes in fill_alter_inplace_info()
* more "innodb compatibility hooks" in sql_class.cc to
- create/destroy/reset a THD (used by background purge threads)
- find a prelocked table by name
- open a table (from a background purge thread)
* different from 5.7:
- new service thread "thd_destructor_proxy" to make sure all THDs are
destroyed at the correct point in time during the server shutdown
- proper opening/closing of tables for vcol evaluations in
+ FK checks (use already opened prelocked tables)
+ purge threads (open the table, MDLock it, add it to tdc, close
when not needed)
- cache open tables in vc_templ
- avoid unnecessary allocations, reuse table->record[0] and table->s->default_values
- not needed in 5.7, because it overcalculates:
+ tell the server to calculate vcols for an on-going inline ADD INDEX
+ calculate vcols for correct error messages
* update other engines (mroonga/tokudb) accordingly
