0a897aa839 Fix ccrfilter_global
Made sure that the inserted row is replicated before inserting another
one. Shortened the test so that slower systems finish it within a
reasonable time. Increased the time that the writes are routed to the
master.

a1e8287265 Add global to ccrfilter
The `global` parameter causes the time window defined by the `time`
parameter to be applied at the instance level instead of the session
level. This means that a write from one connection will cause all other
connections to use the master for a certain period of time.

Using a configurable time window for consistency is not good as it is not
absolute and cannot adjust to how servers behave.

One example that demonstrates this is when a slave is normally lagging
behind by less than a second but some event causes the lag to spike up to
several seconds. In this case the configured time window would no longer
guarantee consistency.

Another reason to avoid a "static" time window is the fact taht it
prevents load balancing in the cases where slaves catch up to the master
within time window. This happens when time is configured to a higher value
to avoid inconsistencies at all costs.

Added a test case that verified the feature works.
