test: add test for mysql gatherGlobalVariables using sql-mock

[fxedel]

Required for all PRs:

• Updated associated README.md.
• Wrote appropriate unit tests.
• Pull request title or commits are in conventional commit format

See #8561

Add a test that doesn't need a real database connection (by using sql-mock) and asserts proper parsing of the SQL query result.

I already found some issues with the version tag by adding this test, but I'd recommend adding the tests first and fixing the issues afterwards.

Hi,

Would love to take more tests, however, it looks like the PR tests and lint are failing. Can you take a look at the failures?

Thanks!
