Virtual/generated column support for MySQL 5.7.5+ and MariaDB 5.2.0+

MySQL generated columns: https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/create-table-generated-columns.html
MariaDB virtual columns: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb/virtual-computed-columns/

Declare virtual columns with `t.virtual name, type: …, as: "expression"`.
Pass `stored: true` to persist the generated value (false by default).

Example:

    create_table :generated_columns do |t|
      t.string  :name
      t.virtual :upper_name, type: :string,  as: "UPPER(name)"
      t.virtual :name_length, type: :integer, as: "LENGTH(name)", stored: true
      t.index :name_length  # May be indexed, too!
    end

Closes #22589
