Remove one of the major sources of race condiitons in mariadb-test.
Normally, mariadb_close() sends COM_QUIT to the server and immediately
disconnects. In mariadb-test it means the test can switch to another
connection and sends queries to the server before the server even
started parsing the COM_QUIT packet and these queries can see the
connection as fully active, as it didn't reach dispatch_command yet.
This is a major source of instability in tests and many - but not all,
still less than a half - tests employ workarounds. The correct one
is a pair count_sessions.inc/wait_until_count_sessions.inc.
Also very popular was wait_until_disconnected.inc, which was completely
useless, because it verifies that the connection is closed, and after
disconnect it always is, it didn't verify whether the server processed
COM_QUIT. Sadly the placebo was as widely used as the real thing.
Let's fix this by making mariadb-test `disconnect` command _to wait_ for
the server to confirm. This makes almost all workarounds redundant.
In some cases count_sessions.inc/wait_until_count_sessions.inc is still
needed, though, as only `disconnect` command is changed:
* after external tools, like `exec $MYSQL`
* after failed `connect` command
* replication, after `STOP SLAVE`
* Federated/CONNECT/SPIDER/etc after `DROP TABLE`
and also in some XA tests, because an XA transaction is dissociated from
the THD very late, after the server has closed the client connection.
Collateral cleanups: fix comments, remove some redundant statements:
* DROP IF EXISTS if nothing is known to exist
* DROP table/view before DROP DATABASE
* REVOKE privileges before DROP USER
etc
The test fails trying to compare (innodb/lock)_row_lock_time_avg with
some limit. We can't predict (innodb/lock)_row_lock_time_avg value,
because it's counted as the whole waiting time divided by the amount of
waits. Both waiting time and amount of waits depend on the previous
tests execution. The corresponding counters in lock_sys can't be reset
with any query. Remove (innodb/lock)_row_lock_time_avg comparision from
the test.
information_schema.global_status.innodb_row_lock_time can't be reset,
compare its difference instead of absolute value.

Before MDEV-24671, the wait time was derived from my_interval_timer() /
1000 (nanoseconds converted to microseconds, and not microseconds to
milliseconds like I must have assumed). The lock_sys.wait_time and
lock_sys.wait_time_max are already in milliseconds; we should not divide
them by 1000.
In MDEV-24738 the millisecond counts lock_sys.wait_time and
lock_sys.wait_time_max were changed to a 32-bit type. That would
overflow in 49.7 days. Keep using a 64-bit type for those millisecond
counters.
