Subject: [PATCH] Tests: Fix `explode()` error for old DB versions on PHP 8.1+.

On MySQL/MariaDB 5.5, the default value for `sql_mode` was a blank string. By itself this is not a problem. However, `$wpdb->get_var()` returns `null` when a variable has an empty value.

One test method currently passes the result of `$wpdb->get_var( 'SELECT @@SESSION.sql_mode;' )` to `explode()` in order to reset the database to the pre-test method state. This causes an error when running PHP 8.1+, which deprecated the ability to pass `null` as a parameter of `explode()`.

This edge case was undiscovered because these versions are not currently included in the automated testing matrix.

See #62280.
