MDEV-27931: buf_page_is_corrupted() wrongly claims corruption
In commit 437da7bc (MDEV-19534), the default value of the global variable srv_checksum_algorithm in innochecksum was changed from SRV_CHECKSUM_ALGORITHM_INNODB to implied 0 (innodb_checksum_algorithm=crc32). As a result, the function buf_page_is_corrupted() would by default invoke buf_calc_page_crc32() in innochecksum, and crc32_inited would hold. This would cause "innochecksum" to fail on a particular page. The actual problem is older, introduced in 2011 in mysql/mysql-server@17e497bdb793bc6b8360aa1c626dcd8bb5cfad1b (MySQL 5.6.3). It should affect the validation of pages of old data files that were written with innodb_checksum_algorithm=innodb. When using innodb_checksum_algorithm=crc32 (the default setting since MariaDB Server 10.2), some valid pages would be rejected only because exactly one of the two checksum fields accidentally matches the innodb_checksum_algorithm=crc32 value. buf_page_is_corrupted(): Simplify the logic of non-strict checksum validation, by always invoking buf_calc_page_crc32(). Remove a bogus condition that if only one of the checksum fields contains the value returned by buf_calc_page_crc32(), the page is corrupted.
