MDEV-24167: Use lightweight srw_lock for btr_search_latch
Many InnoDB rw-locks unnecessarily depend on the complex InnoDB rw_lock_t implementation that support the SX lock mode as well as recursive acquisition of X or SX locks. One of them is the bunch of adaptive hash index search latches, instrumented as btr_search_latch in PERFORMANCE_SCHEMA. Let us introduce a simpler lock for those in order to reduce overhead. srw_lock: A simple read-write lock that does not support recursion. On Microsoft Windows, this wraps SRWLOCK, only adding runtime overhead if PERFORMANCE_SCHEMA is enabled. On Linux (all architectures), this is implemented with std::atomic<uint32_t> and the futex system call. On other platforms, we will wrap mysql_rwlock_t with zero runtime overhead. The PERFORMANCE_SCHEMA instrumentation differs from InnoDB rw_lock_t in that we will only invoke PSI_RWLOCK_CALL(start_rwlock_wrwait) or PSI_RWLOCK_CALL(start_rwlock_rdwait) if there is an actual conflict.
