    MDEV-17421: mtr does not restart the server whose parameters were changed · 1eb364f8
    Julius Goryavsky authored
    If a mtr test runs multiple servers and only some of them get
    restarted on whatever reason with new command-line parameters,
    then subsequent mtr test may fail, because no cleanup is performed.
    Replication and Galera test suites are affected.
    
    In the mtr script, there is a server_need_restart function
    that decides whether we need to start a new mysqld process before
    the new (next) test. If the mysqld parameters were changed in the
    previous test - not necessarily the parameters of the primary mysqld
    server, maybe even the secondary server parameters - this function
    decides to start a new mysqld process. But since it does not remove
    the old (changed) parameters, the new process starts with the
    parameters changed by the *previous* test.
    
    To correct this error, we must delete the modified process
    parameters after checking that they have been changed during
    the previous test.
    
    This patch also simplifies and makes more stable the
    galera_drop_database test, during debugging of which this
    problem was detected.
