The total timeout for the retrying of interrupted queries can now be
configured with the `query_retry_timeout` parameter. It controls the total
timeout in seconds that the query can take.
The actual connection, read and write timeouts of the connector aren't a
good configuration value to use for abstracted queries as the time that it
takes to execute a query can be composed of both connections, reads and
writes. This is caused by the usage of MYSQL_OPT_RECONNECT that hides the
fact that the connector reconnects to the server when a query is
attempted.
The new `query_retries` parameter controls how many times an interrupted
query is retried. This retrying of interrupted queries will reduce the
rate of false positives that MaxScale monitors detect.
The two cases where the case-sensitive parser functions were used don't
appear to hold any special meaning. The case-insensitive function should
be used as it implements a superset of functionality compared to the
case-sensitive version.
For the general case, regex matching simply will not do. The
regex becomes so hairy so it turns write-only, i.e. unmaintainable.
Regex matching is also slower than a handwritten custom parser.
TheBoundaryMatcher is not updated as it is likely it will be removed
altogether. A regex that accepts comments in all relevant places becomes
so hairy it is unmaintainable. It seems that the only working solution
would be to first remove all comments and then perform the regex.
A class capble of detecting statements that change the transaction
state and autocommit mode. The detection is done using regexes.
There is still some expanding and optimization to be done.

Transaction boundaries can now be detected using regexes.
All else being equal, it gives a 10% performance improvement
compared to qc-based detection.
In a subsequent change, mysql_client.c will be modified to use
qc_get_trx_type_mask() instead of qc_get_type_mask().
Currently the use of regex matching is turned on using an
environment variable. That will change.
Removed unused spinlocks from DCBs, sessions and the MySQL protocol
structs. They were used in a context where only one thread has access to
the structure.
Removed unused member variables from DCBs.
This header defines some general functions and maxscale main() return
values. Most of it is still public, but there were some functions
which were moved to a core header.
Moved some typedefs to router.h and server.h, changed a few
constants to these enums. Renamed some types in config.h to
remove "Gateway".
There are still some functions in the public header which are
only used in core, but they seem to fit the theme of public functions
so were not moved.
When the relay master or external slave states change, they should be
ignored in the current implementation. When the relay master and slave of
external master events are added, the events can be enabled.
The external config.h header defined functions and structures that are
intended to be used by modules. The internal header contains functions
that are used only by the MaxScale core.
The header is divided into two parts, an external and an internal one. The
actual splitting is done in a later commit and this commit only prepares
the header for the split.
Filters, monitors and routers can now declare parameters and those
parameters will always be present. Currently, this removes the need to
parse simple values like booleans and integers.
Some of the more common parameter types could be added in the future
e.g. paths to files.
The server weighting parameters couldn't be altered online and they
weren't serialized to disk. Only servers that are created online will have
their weighting parameters persisted to disk.
Aligning the statistics object indices to cache line size reduces the CPU
overhead of gathering the statistics. This allows the statistics to more
accurately measure the polling system without the measurement affecting
the outcome.
Router and filter instances cannot be destroyed before all worker
threads have exited. Otherwise there is a risk that data gets deleted
while someone might still be accessing it. Further, since all router
and filter instances are created by the main-thread it is better that
they are deleted by that thread as well (and not by whichever thread
happens to execute service_shutdown()). That will reduce the risk that
some unknown assumptions are violated.
