trx_undof_page_add_undo_rec_log(): Write the MLOG_UNDO_INSERT
record instead of the equivalent MLOG_2BYTES and MLOG_WRITE_STRING.
This essentially reverts commit 9ee8917dfd.
In MariaDB 10.3, I attempted to simplify the crash recovery code
by making use of lower-level redo log records. It turns out that
we must keep the redo log parsing code in order to allow crash-upgrade
from older MariaDB versions (MDEV-14848).
Now, it further turns out that the InnoDB redo log record format is
suboptimal for logging multiple changes to a single page. This simple
change to the redo logging of undo log significantly affects the
INSERT and UPDATE performance.
Essentially, we wrote
(space_id,page_number,MLOG_2BYTES,2 bytes)
(space_id,page_number,MLOG_WRITE_STRING,N+4 bytes)
instead of the previously written
(space_id,page_number,MLOG_UNDO_INSERT,N+2 bytes)
The added redo log volume caused a single-threaded INSERT
(without innodb_adaptive_hash_index) of
1,000,000 rows to consume 11 seconds instead of 9 seconds,
and a subsequent UPDATE of 30,000,000 rows to consume 64 seconds
instead of 58 seconds. If we omitted all redo logging for the
undo log, the INSERT would consume only 4 seconds.
