Should fix #1796.
Currently, when creating a MySQL column using the SystemMethods.CurrentUTCDateTime, a MySQL syntax error is thrown, as UTC_TIMESTAMP is not a literal constant.
Unit tests were added, but integration tests were not. I could not find any integration tests for SystemMethods defaults, though I can add some for the DBMS I am familiar with, if desired. (MySQL, SQL Server, and possibly PostgreSQL, but I am not familiar enough with Hana, DB2, etc. to get those integration tests working.)
Adjustments made based on MySQL documentation: https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/data-type-defaults.html#data-types-defaults-explicit
I am relatively certain this is not a breaking change, as based on the documentation, it does not look like UTC_TIMESTAMP would have worked in any MySQL version prior to 8.0.13.
