 In [changeset:"31354"]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="31354"
 Upgrades: When upgrading a table to utf8mb4, we should run the `ALTER
 TABLE` query, even if it doesn't have any text columns. This will update
 the table's default character set, so that any text columns added in the
 future will have the expected character set.

 See #21212
