  Redmine query is very slow after upgrading from MySql 5.7 to 8
Description
Recently we upgraded the MySql version for Redmine from 5.7 to 8.0.32. After the upgrade the MyPage query is taking a very long time to execute (Around 1 minute). Previously in version 5.7 it used to execute within a few seconds. This is resulting in our CPU usage to reach 99% very quickly.
On initial research looks like MySql 8 uses derived query optimization concept due to which the logic that the query is interpreted in 5.7 and 8 is different.
Redmine Version: 4.1.1.stable (Tried this on latest redmine version 5.0.5 but faced the same issue. Also all the appropriate index have been done as well)
My Page Query:

As you can see, in 5.7 all the rows are being pulled in single query where as for 8.0.32 it is being pulled in multiple query.
