    MDEV-6718: Server crashed in Gtid_log_event::Gtid_log_event with parallel replication · 8a3e2f29

    The bug occured in parallel replication when re-trying transactions that
    failed due to deadlock. In this case, the relay log file is re-opened and the
    events are read out again. This reading requires a format description event of
    the appropriate version. But the code was using a description event stored in
    rli, which is not thread-safe. This could lead to various rare races if the
    format description event was replaced by the SQL driver thread at the exact
    moment where a worker thread was trying to use it.
    
    The fix is to instead make the retry code create and maintain its own format
    description event. When the relay log file is opened, we first read the format
    description event from the start of the file, before seeking to the current
    position. This now uses the same code as when the SQL driver threads starts
    from a given relay log position. This also makes sure that the correct format
    description event version will be used in cases where the version of the
    binlog could change during replication.
