feat(galera): add network queue, PK certification, and split-brain quorum diagnostics #975

Description

@jmrenouard

Summary of Changes

Add new Galera Cluster diagnostic checks to mysqltuner.pl and comprehensive unit test coverage:

  1. Galera Local Send & Recv Queue Monitoring:

    • Detects elevated network queue averages (wsrep_local_send_queue_avg > 0.05 or wsrep_local_recv_queue_avg > 0.05).
    • Recommends checking network bandwidth and storage latency on slower nodes.
  2. Galera Primary Key Certification Enforcement Check:

    • Detects when wsrep_certify_non_pk is set to OFF.
    • Recommends enabling wsrep_certify_non_pk = ON to prevent replication inconsistencies and full cluster locks.
  3. Galera Split-Brain Quorum Check:

    • Warns when wsrep_cluster_size is an even number (e.g. 2 or 4 nodes) without an arbitrator.
    • Recommends an odd node count (3, 5) or deploying Galera Arbitrator (garbd) to prevent split-brain quorums.

Verification & Unit Tests

  • New dedicated unit test file: tests/unit_galera_enhanced.t (3/3 subtests passing).
  • Validated via full test suite execution (113 files, 570 subtests passing 100%).
  • Validated E2E against a live 3-node MariaDB 11.8.6 Galera Cluster topology.
