Attempt to fix rare race in test for MDEV-8031
The error-injection inject_mdev8031 simulates a deadlock kill in a specific
place, by setting killed_for_retry to RETRY_KILL_KILLED directly. If a real
deadlock kill triggers at the same time, it is possible for the thread to
complete its transaction retry and set rgi_slave to NULL before the real
readlock kill can complete in the background. This will cause a segfault
due to null-pointer access.
Fix by changing the error injection to do a real background deadlock kill,
which ensures that the thread will wait for any pending background kills to
complete.
