Description:
After upgrading to 5.7.7 the proxies_priv user column and Proxy_user column remains 16 characters long, although it should be 32. 

How to repeat:
run mysql upgrade

Suggested fix:
Change the mysql_system_tables_fix.sql, mysql_system_tables_fix_for_downgrade.sql to reflect the change to 32 user name length in proxies_priv user table.

Noted in 5.7.13, 5.8.0 changelogs.

mysql_upgrade failed to widen the User and Proxied_user columns in
the mysql.proxies_priv system table from 16 to 32 characters.
