MDEV-4473: mysql_binlog_send() starts sending events from wrong GTID position...
MDEV-4473: mysql_binlog_send() starts sending events from wrong GTID position in some master failover scenarios Suppose binlog file X has in its Gtid_list_event: 0-1-3,0-2-5, and suppose the slave requests to start replicating after 0-1-3. In this case the bug was that master would start sending events from the start of X. This is wrong, because 0-2-4 and 0-2-5 are contained in X-1, and are needed by the slave. So these events were lost. On the other hand, if the slave requested 0-2-5, then it _is_ correct to start sending from the beginning of binlog file X, because 0-2-5 is the last GTID logged in earlier binlogs. The difference is that 0-2-5 is the last of the GTIDs in the Gtid_list_event. The problem was that the code did not check that the matched GTID was the last one in the list. Fixed by checking if the gtid requested by slave that matches a gtid in the Gtid_list_event is the last event for that domain in the list. If not, go back to a prior binlog to ensure all needed events are sent to slave. mysql-test/include/show_events.inc: Backport --let $binlog_file=LAST, used by MDEV-4473 test case.
