The motivation of introducing the parameter
innodb_purge_rseg_truncate_frequency in
mysql/mysql-server@28bbd66ea5 and
mysql/mysql-server@8fc2120fed
seems to have been to avoid stalls due to freeing undo log pages
or truncating undo log tablespaces. In MariaDB Server,
innodb_undo_log_truncate=ON should be a much lighter operation
than in MySQL, because it will not involve any log checkpoint.
Another source of performance stalls should be
trx_purge_truncate_rseg_history(), which is shrinking the history list
by freeing the undo log pages whose undo records have been purged.
To alleviate that, we will introduce a purge_truncation_task that will
offload this from the purge_coordinator_task. In that way, the next
innodb_purge_batch_size pages may be parsed and purged while the pages
from the previous batch are being freed and the history list being shrunk.
The processing of innodb_undo_log_truncate=ON will still remain the
responsibility of the purge_coordinator_task.
purge_coordinator_state::count: Remove. We will ignore
innodb_purge_rseg_truncate_frequency, and act as if it had been
set to 1 (the maximum shrinking frequency).
purge_coordinator_state::do_purge(): Invoke an asynchronous task
purge_truncation_callback() to free the undo log pages.
purge_sys_t::iterator::free_history(): Free those undo log pages
that have been processed. This used to be a part of
trx_purge_truncate_history().
purge_sys_t::clone_end_view(): Take a new value of purge_sys.head
as a parameter, so that it will be updated while holding exclusive
purge_sys.latch. This is needed for race-free access to the field
in purge_truncation_callback().

It is not safe to invoke trx_purge_free_segment() or execute
innodb_undo_log_truncate=ON before all undo log records in
the rollback segment has been processed.
A prominent failure that would occur due to premature freeing of
undo log pages is that trx_undo_get_undo_rec() would crash when
trying to copy an undo log record to fetch the previous version
of a record.
If trx_undo_get_undo_rec() was not invoked in the unlucky time frame,
then the symptom would be that some committed transaction history is
never removed. This would be detected by CHECK TABLE...EXTENDED that
was impleented in commit ab0190101b0587e0e03b2d75a967050b9a85fd1b.
Such a garbage collection leak should be possible even when using
innodb_undo_log_truncate=OFF, just involving trx_purge_free_segment().
trx_rseg_t::needs_purge: Change the type from Boolean to a transaction
identifier, noting the most recent non-purged transaction, or 0 if
everything has been purged. On transaction start, we initialize this
to 1 more than the transaction start ID. On recovery, the field may be
adjusted to the transaction end ID (TRX_UNDO_TRX_NO) if it is larger.
The field TRX_UNDO_NEEDS_PURGE becomes write-only; only some debug
assertions that would validate the value. The field reflects the old
inaccurate Boolean field trx_rseg_t::needs_purge.
trx_undo_mem_create_at_db_start(), trx_undo_lists_init(),
trx_rseg_mem_restore(): Remove the parameter max_trx_id.
Instead, store the maximum in trx_rseg_t::needs_purge,
where trx_rseg_array_init() will find it.
trx_purge_free_segment(): Contiguously hold a lock on
trx_rseg_t to prevent any concurrent allocation of undo log.
trx_purge_truncate_rseg_history(): Only invoke trx_purge_free_segment()
if the rollback segment is empty and there are no pending transactions
associated with it.
trx_purge_truncate_history(): Only proceed with innodb_undo_log_truncate=ON
if trx_rseg_t::needs_purge indicates that all history has been purged.

Let us invoke wait_all_purged.inc right before the workload.
Starting with MDEV-12288 in MariaDB Server 10.3, also INSERT
generates purge workload. If we do not ensure that purge has
run to completion, the results on 10.3 and later could be
nondeterministic.
If there're multiple row versions in InnoDB, reading one row from PK
may have O(N) complexity and reading from secondary keys may have
O(N^2) complexity.
The problem occurs when there are many pending versions of the same
row, meaning that the primary key is the same, but a secondary key is
different. The slowdown occurs when the secondary index is
traversed. This patch creates a helper class for the function
row_sel_get_clust_rec_for_mysql() which can remember and re-use
cached_clust_rec & cached_old_vers so that rec_get_offsets() does not
need to be called over and over for the clustered record.

Removed test that tested the ability of interrupting long query which
is not long anymore.
