    Do allow writes for innodb_force_recovery=2 or 3 · 0288fa61

    While the primary purpose of innodb_force_recovery is to allow
    data to be rescued from an InnoDB instance that would crash due
    to some data corruption, the settings 1, 2, or 3 are relatively
    safe to use and there is no need to prevent write transactions
    in these modes.
    
    The setting innodb_force_recovery=4 and above can cause database
    corruption. For those modes, we already set the flag
    high_level_read_only to disable modifications, except DROP TABLE.
    
    MODIFICATIONS_NOT_ALLOWED_MSG_FORCE_RECOVERY: Remove. There is no
    need to spam the error log for each refused DML operation. It suffices
    to return an error to the client. There will be messages at startup
    if innodb_read_only or innodb_force_recovery are preventing writes.
