redo log encryption fails to error out even if keyring plugin configuration is missing

Details

    Description

      • Create seed database w/o any encryption
      • Start ps instance with redo log encryption (w/o specifying keyring plugin params).
      • Expected: Error out as set innodb_redo_log_encrypt to 0 as done by upstream (mysql)

      • PS allows the server to boot doesn't throw any error and doesn't even set innodb_redo_log_encrypt = 0. This is not true since w/o keyring how can PS encrypt the said redo log space. Where does it store/caches the key.
      • Now if we specify innodb_log_file_size=XM (something > default) that would cause the creation of InnoDB log file this would error out but the default file doesn't.
