Comment (by JavierCasares):

 Right now, with the latest MySQL 8.0 and MariaDB 10.6 versions, there is
 no "utf8" because hey changed it for "utf8mb3".

 If we want to support all the inernational language charset, WordPress
 should support by default "utf8mb4" (supported by all WordPress-SQL
 supported databases).
