MDEV-29883 Deadlock between InnoDB statistics update and BLOB insert
This is a backport of commit 8b6a308e from MariaDB Server 10.6.11. No attempt to reproduce the hang in earlier an earlier version of MariaDB Server than 10.6 was made. In each caller of fseg_n_reserved_pages() except ibuf_init_at_db_start() which is a special case for ibuf.index at database startup, we must hold an index latch that prevents concurrent allocation or freeing of index pages. Any operation that allocates or free pages that belong to an index tree must first acquire an index latch in non-shared mode, and while holding that, acquire an index root page latch in non-shared mode. btr_get_size(), btr_get_size_and_reserved(): Assert that a strong enough index latch is being held. dict_stats_update_transient_for_index(), dict_stats_analyze_index(): Acquire a strong enough index latch. These operations had followed the same order of acquiring latches in every InnoDB version since the very beginning (commit c533308a). The hang was introduced in commit 2e814d47 which imported mysql/mysql-server@ac74632293bea967b352d1b472abedeeaa921b98 which failed to strengthen the locking requirements of the function btr_get_size().
