MDEV-23379 Deprecate&ignore InnoDB concurrency throttling parameters
The parameters innodb_thread_concurrency and innodb_commit_concurrency were useful years ago when both computing resources and the implementation of some shared data structures were limited. MySQL 5.0 or 5.1 had trouble scaling beyond 8 concurrent connections. Most of the scalability bottlenecks have been removed since then, and the transactions per second delivered by MariaDB Server 10.5 should not dramatically drop upon exceeding the 'optimal' number of connections. Hence, enabling any concurrency throttling for InnoDB actually makes things worse. We have seen many customers mistakenly setting this to a small value like 16 or 64 and then complaining the server was slow. Ignoring the parameters allows us to remove some normally unused code and data structures, which could slightly improve performance. innodb_thread_concurrency, innodb_commit_concurrency, innodb_replication_delay, innodb_concurrency_tickets, innodb_thread_sleep_delay, innodb_adaptive_max_sleep_delay: Deprecate and ignore; hard-wire to 0. The column INFORMATION_SCHEMA.INNODB_TRX.trx_concurrency_tickets will always report 0.
