The macro MASTER_INFO_VAR invokes undefined behaviour

    Description

      Since MariaDB 10.4.19 most tests succeed when the code is compiled with GCC 9 or 10 and cmake -DWITH_UBSAN (and UBSAN is not instructed to crash on errors by setting an environment variable). But, a clang build would crash on bootstrap, due to dereferencing an invalid constant pointer:

      10.4

      UndefinedBehaviorSanitizer:DEADLYSIGNAL
      ==619510==ERROR: UndefinedBehaviorSanitizer: SEGV on unknown address 0x000000000010 (pc 0x0000006de2b4 bp 0x000200000000 sp 0x7ffe3fc3bbc0 T619510)

      The crashing instruction is attempting to dereference an invalid constant pointer:

         0x00000000006de295 <+36517>:	movabs $0x9ddfea08eb382d69,%r14
      

      If applying any offset to the null pointer is undefined behaviour, then surely also applying an offset to an invalid constant pointer should be undefined behaviour:

      #define MASTER_INFO_VAR(X) my_offsetof(Master_info, X), sizeof(((Master_info *)0x10)->X)
      #define my_offsetof(TYPE, MEMBER) PTR_BYTE_DIFF(&((TYPE *)0x10)->MEMBER, 0x10)
      

      (Note: offsetof is defined for POD, but not for C++ objects. Any use of the macro my_offsetof on C++ objects ought to be undefined behaviour.

      The following patch, which removes all use of MASTER_INFO_VAR but not my_offsetof, allows the bootstrap to succeed on clang:
