In stead of hard-coded 8, read from $MTR_MAX_PARALLEL if set

Alt. solution: let the "InnoDB plugin" combinations apply
Added some alternative plugin paths (I need to move the code anyway)

After discussion with Satya this bug does not exist
in trunk.

additional backport of of bug43138 fix

1. Fixes BUG#44030 - Error: (1500) Couldn't read the MAX(ID) autoinc value 
                     from the index (PRIMARY)

2. Disables the innodb-autoinc test for innodb plugin temporarily.
   The testcase for this bug has different result file for InnoDB plugin.
   Should add the testcase to Innodb suite with a different result file.

branches/5.1: When the InnoDB and MySQL data dictionaries go out of sync, before
the bug fix we would assert on missing autoinc columns. With this fix we allow
MySQL to open the table but set the next autoinc value for the column to the
MAX value. This effectively disables the next value generation. INSERTs will
fail with a generic AUTOINC failure. However, the user should be able to
read/dump the table, set the column values explicitly, use ALTER TABLE to
set the next autoinc value and/or sync the two data dictionaries to resume
normal operations.

Remove the word "Error" from the printout because the mysqltest suite
interprets it as an error and thus the innodb-autoinc test fails.

branches/5.1:

Adjust the failing innodb-autoinc test to conform to the latest behavior
of the MySQL code. The idea and the comment in innodb-autoinc.test come
from Sunny.

      
The test case rpl_do_grant fails sporadically on PB2 with "Access
denied for user 'create_rout_db'@'localhost' ...". Inspecting the
test case, one may find that if issues a GRANT on the master
connection and immediately after it creates two new connections
(one to the master and one to the slave) using the credentials
set with the GRANT.
      
Unfortunately, there is no synchronization between master and
slave after the grant and before the connections are
established. This can result in slave not having executed the
GRANT by the time the connection is attempted.
      
This patch fixes this by deploying a sync_slave_with_master
between the grant and the connections attempt.
