Description:
According to the documentation, rbr_exec_mode has Global and Session scope (see https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/server-system-variables.html#sysvar_rbr_exec_mode). However, SET GLOBAL on this variable fails.

How to repeat:
SET GLOBAL rbr_exec_mode = STRICT; -- unexpected: ERROR 1228 (HY000): Variable 'rbr_exec_mode' is a SESSION variable and can't be used with SET GLOBAL
SET SESSION rbr_exec_mode = STRICT; -- no error

Thank you for the bug report. Maybe a documentation bug.
