Remove alter_algorithm but keep the variable as no-op (with a warning).
The reasons for removing alter_algorithm are:
- alter_algorithm was introduced as a replacement for the
old_alter_table that was used to force the usage of the original
alter table algorithm (copy) in the cases where the new alter
algorithm did not work. The new option was added as a way to force
the usage of a specific algorithm when it should instead have made
it possible to disable algorithms that would not work for some
reason.
- alter_algorithm introduced some cases where ALTER TABLE would not
work without specifying the ALGORITHM=XXX option together with
ALTER TABLE.
- Having different values of alter_algorithm on master and slave could
cause slave to stop unexpectedly.
- ALTER TABLE FORCE, as used by mariadb-upgrade, would not always work
if alter_algorithm was set for the server.
- As part of the MDEV-33449 "improving repair of tables" it become
clear that alter- algorithm made it harder to provide a better and
more consistent ALTER TABLE FORCE and REPAIR TABLE and it would be
better to remove it.
Also in the startup, lets not "Error" on attempting to install a
mysql.plugin that is already there. We use the 'if_not_exists'
parameter to true to downgrade this to a "Note".
Also corrects: MDEV-32041 "plugin already loaded" should be a Warning, not an Error
Renames the upgrade state file, and ensures the old
file is properly removed when `mariadb-upgrade` tool is executed.

MDEV-16735 describes how mysql_upgrade fails when alter_algorithm
is set to a value different than 'DEFAULT'/'COPY'. It was marked as
fixed by 0ee0868, but the fix didn't covered the possibility of having
the global value of alter_algorithm set to something different than
'DEFAULT'/'COPY'. To ensure that the upgrade process works properly
regardless the global value of alter_altorithm, this commit force it's
value to 'DEFAULT' (note the quotes) for the mysql_upgrade session.

To prevent ASAN heap-use-after-poison in the MDEV-16549 part of
./mtr --repeat=6 main.derived
the initialization of Name_resolution_context was cleaned up.
Let us disable Valgrind on tests that would fail because a
server shutdown or a STOP SLAVE command would take longer,
causing the test harness to forcibly and silently kill the server
due to an exceeded timeout.
Tests with checking metadata or that cannot be run with
the view-protocol are excluded from --view-protocol.
For tests that do not allow the use of an additional connection,
the util connection is disabled with "--disable_service_connection".
Also cases with bugs for --view-protocol are disabled.
MDEV-20704 changed the rules of how (HA_BINARY_PACK_KEY |
HA_VAR_LENGTH_KEY) flags are added. Older FRMs before that fix had
these flags for DOUBLE index. After that fix when ALTER sees such old
FRM it thinks it cannot do instant alter because of failed
compare_keys_but_name(): it compares flags against tmp table created
by ALTER.
MDEV-20704 fix was actually not about DOUBLE type but about
FIELDFLAG_BLOB which affected DOUBLE. So there is no direct knowledge
that any other types were not affected.
The proposed fix under CHECK TABLE checks if FRM has
(HA_BINARY_PACK_KEY | HA_VAR_LENGTH_KEY) flags and was created prior
MDEV-20704 and if so issues "needs upgrade". When mysqlcheck and
mysql_upgrade see such status they issue ALTER TABLE FORCE and upgrade
the table to the version of server.
The incorrect type of mysql.column_stats caused the server during the
upgrade of every other table to complain:
[ERROR] Incorrect definition of table mysql.column_stats: expected column 'hist_type' at position 9
and expected column 'histogram' at position 10 to have type longblob.
To prevent these verbose server errors, we upgrade the
mysql.column_stats table first.
Consequently limit "Incorrect definition of table mysql.*" to the appropriate
set of limited test cases.
The rpl_gtid_errorhandling.result changes the GTID number by one
because of the added early suppression (adding a table row).
