The problem resided in this branch of the "option_value_no_option_type" rule:

| '@' '@' opt_var_ident_type internal_variable_name equal set_expr_or_default

Summary:

1. internal_variable_name initialized tmp.var to trg_new_row_fake_var (0x01).
2. The condition "if (tmp.var == NULL)" did not check
   the special case with trg_new_row_fake_var,
   so Lex->set_system_variable(&tmp, $3, $6) was
   called with tmp.var pointing to trg_new_row_fake_var,
   which created a sys_var instance pointing to 0x01 instead of
   a real system variable.
3. Later, at the trigger invocation time, this method was called:
   sys_var::do_deprecated_warning (this=0x1, thd=0x7ffe6c000a98)
   Notice, "this" is equal to trg_new_row_fake_var (0x01)

Solution:

The old implementation with separate rules
internal_variable_name (in sql_yacc.yy and sql_yacc_ora.yy) and
internal_variable_name_directly_assignable (in sql_yacc_ora.yy only)
was too complex and hard to follow.

Rewriting the code in a more straightforward way.

1. Changing LEX::set_system_variable()

from:

bool set_system_variable(struct sys_var_with_base *, enum_var_type, Item *);

to:

bool set_system_variable(enum_var_type, sys_var *, const LEX_CSTRING *, Item *);

2. Adding new methods in LEX, which operate with variable names:

bool set_trigger_field(const LEX_CSTRING *, const LEX_CSTRING *, Item *);
bool set_system_variable(enum_var_type var_type, const LEX_CSTRING *name,
                         Item *val);
bool set_system_variable(THD *thd, enum_var_type var_type,
                         const LEX_CSTRING *name1,
                         const LEX_CSTRING *name2,
                         Item *val);
bool set_default_system_variable(enum_var_type var_type,
                                 const LEX_CSTRING *name,
                                 Item *val);
bool set_variable(const LEX_CSTRING *name, Item *item);

3. Changing the grammar to call the new methods directly
   in option_value_no_option_type,
   Removing rules internal_variable_name and
   internal_variable_name_directly_assignable.

4. Removing "struct sys_var_with_base" and trg_new_row_fake_var.

Good side effect:

- The code in /sql reduced from 314 to 183 lines.
- MDEV-15615 Unexpected syntax error instead of "Unknown system variable" ...
  was also fixed automatically

Scientific notation handling fixed.

Removed including wsrep_api.h from service_wsrep.h. This caused
various kinds of collisions with definitions when wsrep is
not supposed to be built in. Defined functions wsrep_xid_seqno()
and wsrep_xid_uuid() in wsrep_dummy.cc. Replaced wsrep_seqno_t
with long long where wsrep_api.h is not included.

Removed wsrep_xid_seqno() macro from wsrep_mysqld.h and made
wsrep code using wsrep_xid_seqno() in handler.cc to be compiled
in only if WITH_WSREP is ON.

Included wsrep_api.h for mariabackup if WITH_WSREP is ON.

MDEV-15597 Add class Load_data_outvar and avoid using Item::STRING_ITEM for Item_user_var_as_out_param detection

Methods:
- Item_user_var_as_out_param::print_for_load()
- sql_exchange::escaped_given(void)

Parameters:
- sql_exchange in write_execute_load_query_log_event()
- sql_exchange in mysql_load()
- sql_exchange in Load_log_event::Load_log_event()

Also, removing cast to "char*" in a few places in
Load_log_event::Load_log_event()

As this is the only moderately critical fopened for writing file,
create an alternate path to use open and fdopen for non-glibc platforms
that support O_CLOEXEC (BSDs).

Tested on Linux (by modifing the GLIBC defination) to take this
alternate path:

$ cd /proc/23874
$ more fdinfo/71

flags:  02100001
mnt_id: 24
$ ls -la fd/71

In thread caching code, clear THD's warnings before reuse.

There is not current SELECT during assigning SP parameters, do not use it if current_select is empty.

A new wsrep XID format was added to keep the XID implementation
backwards compatible. Original version always reads XID seqno
part in host byte order, the new version in little endian byte
order. Wsrep XID will always be written in the new format.

Included wsrep_api.h from service_wsrep.h for wsrep type definitions.
Removed redundant wsrep XID code from mariabackup and included
service_wsrep.h in order to use

The problem is that the seqno part of wsrep XID is always
stored in host byte order. This may cause issues when a physical
backup is restored on a host with different architecture, the
seqno part with XID may have incorrect value.

In order to fix this, wsrep XID seqno is always written into
XID data buffer in little endian byte order using int8store()
and read from data buffer using sint8korr(). For backwards
compatibility the seqno is read from TRX_SYS page in host
byte order during upgrade.

This patch implements byte ordering in wsrep_xid_init(),
wsrep_xid_seqno(), and exposes functions to read wsrep
XID uuid and seqno in wsrep_service_st. Backwards compatibility
for upgrade is provided in trx_rseg_init_wsrep_xid().

fts_sync(): If the dict_table_t::to_be_dropped flag is set,
do not "goto begin_sync".

Also, clean up the way how dict_index_t::index_fts_syncing
is cleared.
