Dmitry Shulga 541433508f MDEV-31871: maria-install-db fails on MacOS
mariadb-install crashes on start when the static variable debug_sync_global
of the class st_debug_sync_globals is initialized by constructor.

Definition of the class st_debug_sync_globals has a data member of the type
Hash_set whose implementation depends on thread-specific data associated
with the key THD_KEY_mysys. This dependency results from constructor of
the class Hash_set that runs my_hash_init2() which in turn invokes my_malloc.
The thread-specific data value associated with the key THD_KEY_mysys is used
by the function sf_malloc to get id of the current thread. The key
THD_KEY_mysys is defined as static variable at my_thr_init.c initialized
with the value -1. Proper initialization of the key THD_KEY_mysys is done
with the library call pthread_key_create but it happens at the  my_init()
that called much later after the first time the THD_KEY_mysys() has been
invoked. In according with Single Unix Specification, the effect of calling
pthread_setspecific() or pthread_getspecific() with a key value not obtained
from pthread_key_create() is undefined. That is the reason why mariadb-install
crashes on MacOS.

To fix the issue, the static variable debug_sync_global is converted to
a pointer to the class st_debug_sync_globals and its instantiation is done
explicitly at the function debug_sync_init() that is called at right time.

This is the follow-up patch to the commits
  8885225de6
  f6ecadfee8
where was introduced a statically instantiated object debug_sync_global of
the structure st_debug_sync_globals and the key THR_KEY_mysys for this
thread-specific data was initialized with the value -1.

MariaDB: The open source relational database

MariaDB was designed as a drop-in replacement of MySQL(R) with more features, new storage engines, fewer bugs, and better performance.

MariaDB is brought to you by the MariaDB Foundation and the MariaDB Corporation. Please read the CREDITS file for details about the MariaDB Foundation, and who is developing MariaDB.

MariaDB is developed by many of the original developers of MySQL who now work for the MariaDB Corporation, the MariaDB Foundation and by many people in the community.

MySQL, which is the base of MariaDB, is a product and trademark of Oracle Corporation, Inc. For a list of developers and other contributors, see the Credits appendix. You can also run 'SHOW authors' to get a list of active contributors.
