Quite confusing error message :(
I understand where it comes from, but for a user, I'm afraid, it just won't
make any sense.
A reasonable message could be, for example,
AUTO_INCREMENT column %`s cannot be used in the UNIQUE index %`s

you've had almost the same test (MDEV-21819) in main/long_unique.test
it's a bit strange to have to very similar tests in different suites
I suggest to move MDEV-21819 test from main/long_unique.test to this file.
and then move this whole file from versioning suite to the period suite.

This looks quite incomprehensible. If the table has a long unique key
and the update_handler is the handler itself you _prepare for insert_ ???
if it's an insert it should've been prepared earlier, like, normally for
an insert, and it don't have to do anything with long uniques.
What you actually do here (as I've found out looking firther in the patch)
you prepare update_handler. That is "prepare_for_insert" is VERY confusing
here, it sounds like it prepares for a normal insert and should be
called at the beginning of mysql_insert(). And it's nothing like that.
It would remove half of the questions if you'd call it
prepare_update_handler() or, better, prepare_auxiliary_handler() (because
it'll be used not only for long uniques) or something like that.
Still, some questions are left:
1. why partitioning needs special code for that?
2. when a handler itself is its update_handler AND inited==RND?
the handler itself can be the update_handler on INSERT, but then inited is NONE
Is it UPDATE with system versioning?

Looks strange. Why F_RDLCK if it's an *update* handler?
This definitely needs a comment, why you're using read lock for updates.

you already have an if() inside the delete_update_handler().
Either remove it from here or from there.

I don't see why you need it for Aria.
It can always check table->s->long_unique_table without an extra call

Ok, now I think that your idea of the default update_handler=this
is rather fragile. If the default is NULL, than we can put in many places
DBUG_ASSERT(update_handler != NULL);
to make sure it was initialized when needed. Now we cannot do it.
And there are many places in the code and non-trivial conditions when
the update_handler has to be initialized and these places and conditions
will change in the future. An assert would be helpful here.

again, this is *only* needed for INSERT DELAYED that very few people
ever use. It should be in some INSERT DELAYED specific data structure,
not in the common TABLE.
By the way, why cannot you get the list of keyparts
from table->key_info->key_part ?

why do you disable bulk inserts for long uniques?

Here, again, you've basically duplicated the logic of how long uniques
are represented in the keys and keyparts. All for the sake of INSERT DELAYED.
I'd really prefer INSERT DELAYED problems to be solved inside
the Delayed_insert class. And it can use setup_keyinfo_hash()
and re_setup_keyinfo_hash() functions to avoid duplicating the logic.
