Description:
Run the following statements:

SET SESSION SQL_BUFFER_RESULT = ON;
CREATE VIEW v0 (c0) AS ((SELECT 1) UNION (SELECT 1));
SELECT c0 FROM v0; --Incorrect usage/placement of 'SQL_BUFFER_RESULT'

The error seems strange here, plus only happens if the view is defined as a UNION.

The compilation parameters are the same as issue 108148:

-DWITH_DEBUG=1 -DWITH_ASAN=ON -DWITH_UBSAN=ON and boost library version 1.77

How to repeat:
Run the statements above.

Can be seen in 5.7 also.
SET SESSION SQL_BUFFER_RESULT = ON;
CREATE VIEW v0 (c0) AS SELECT 1 UNION SELECT 1;
> select * from v0;
ERROR 1234 (42000): Incorrect usage/placement of 'SQL_BUFFER_RESULT'

One would get the same error by this syntax:
CREATE VIEW v0 (c0) AS SELECT 1 UNION SELECT SQL_BUFFER_RESULT 1;

Perhaps the semantics of this variable isn't clearly enough defined.. Should it be applied only on the top level SELECT
or on all SELECTs where it's applicable? 
It seems wrong in any case that setting it should give an error here..
