MDEV-10191 non convertible chars convert() resulted in Null instead "?" on Windows
The problem was introduced by the patch for MDEV-7661, which (in addition to the fix itself) included an attempt to make CONVERT/CAST work in the same way with fields (i.e. return NULL in strict mode if a non-convertable character found). It appeared to be a bad idea and some users were affected by this behavior change. Changing CONVERT/CAST not depend on sql_mode (restoring pre-10.1.4 behavior).
