Description:
The latest version of the MySQL Server (version 8.0.33) (git commit hash: ea7087d8850) crashes with Assertion Failure when executing the following query:

Config from "/etc/mysql/conf.d/mysql.cnf":

```
[mysqld]
sql_mode = "NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION"
```

```sql
drop database if exists test123;
create database test123;
use test123;
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS v0 ( v1 INT )  ;
ALTER TABLE v0 ADD COLUMN ( CHECK ( TRUE ) NOT ENFORCED ) ;
```

The last query returns error: 

```
mysql> ALTER TABLE v0 ADD COLUMN ( CHECK ( TRUE ) NOT ENFORCED ) ;
mysqld: /home/mysql/mysql-server/sql/sql_table.cc:12184: bool fill_alter_inplace_info(THD *, TABLE *, Alter_inplace_info *): Assertion `ha_alter_info->handler_flags & (Alter_inplace_info::ADD_VIRTUAL_COLUMN | Alter_inplace_info::ADD_STORED_BASE_COLUMN | Alter_inplace_info::ADD_STORED_GENERATED_COLUMN)' failed.

Most likely, you have hit a bug, but this error can also be caused by malfunctioning hardware.

```

How to repeat:
Steps to repeat the Assertion Failure:
1. Download the MySQL Server source code from the official github repo: `https://github.com/mysql/mysql-server`
2. Checkout to the latest mysql released version: 8.0.33 (hash: `ea7087d8850`)
3. Compile MySQL using the command: 

```
mkdir -p bld
cd bld
cmake .. -DDOWNLOAD_BOOST=1 -DWITH_BOOST=../boost -DWITH_UNIT_TESTS=OFF -DUSE_LD_GOLD=1 -DWITH_DEBUG=1
make
```

4. Run the MySQL Server with command: 

```
./bin/mysqld --basedir=$(pwd) --datadir=$(pwd)/data_all/ori_data --port=7000  --socket=/tmp/mysql_0.sock --mysqlx=OFF --performance_schema=OFF
```

5. Setup the MySQL Server config in the path: "/etc/mysql/conf.d/mysql.cnf"

```
[mysqld]
sql_mode = "NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION"
```

6. Run the MySQL Client with the PoC:

```
./bin/mysql --port=7000 --user=root --socket=/tmp/mysql_0.sock < poc_0.sql
```

where `poc_0.sql` is:

```sql
drop database if exists test123;
create database test123;
use test123;
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS v0 ( v1 INT )  ;
ALTER TABLE v0 ADD COLUMN ( CHECK ( TRUE ) NOT ENFORCED ) ;
```

Suggested fix:
The server should continue running instead of crashing by Assertion Failure.
