Research direction

Start by reviewing pingcap/tidb PR 21988 and the TiDB Operator code that handles tikv_gc_life_time. Determine where the operator currently updates mysql.tidb and identify the relevant tests or configuration entry points; done means the setting uses sysvars instead and the behavior is covered by tests.
