MDEV-19572 async slave node fails to apply MyISAM only writes (#1418)
The problem happens when MariaDB master replicates writes for only non InnoDB tables (e.g. writes to MyISAM table(s)). Async slave node, in Galera cluster, can apply these writes successfully, but it will, in the end, write gtid position in mysql.gtid_slave_pos table. mysql.gtid_slave_pos table is InnoDB engine, and this write makes innodb handlerton part of the replicated "transaction". Note that wsrep patch identifies that write to gtid_slave_pos should not be replicated and skips appending wsrep keys for these writes. However, as InnoDB was present in the transaction, and there are replication events (for MyISAM table) in transaction cache, but there are no appended keys, wsrep raises an error, and this makes the söave thread to stop. The fix is simply to not treat it as an error if async slave tries to replicate a write set with binlog events, but no keys. We just skip wsrep replication and return successfully. This commit contains also a mtr test which forces mysql.gtid_slave_pos table isto be of InnoDB engine, and executes MyISAM only write through asyn replication. There is additional fix for declaring IO and background slave threads as non wsrep. These threads should not write anything for wsrep replication, and this is just a safeguard to make sure nothing leaks into cluster from these slave threads.
