MDEV-38202: make init_rpl_role visible at runtime

Problem:
The --init-rpl-role option can be set in the .cnf file or command
line to configure the server replication role at startup (MASTER
or SLAVE), but there was no way to check this value at runtime.
This made it hard to for investigation issues  because
we can't know  which role the server was started with.

Solution:
I added a new read-only status variable init_rpl_role that captures
the value of rpl_status right after startup  and keeps it unchanged.

ex usage: SHOW STATUS LIKE 'init_rpl_role'; SHOW GLOBAL STATUS LIKE 'init_rpl_role';
