Bug #74517 thread/sql/main doesn't change state/info after startup

Description:
Thread #1, thread/sql/main, as shown in performance_schema.threads, appears to have its state permanently set as "System lock" and its "info" as "INTERNAL DDL LOG RECOVER IN PROGRESS".

mysql 5.6.20-log (root) [test] 1> select * from performance_schema.threads where thread_id=1\G
*************************** 1. row ***************************
          THREAD_ID: 1
               NAME: thread/sql/main
               TYPE: BACKGROUND
     PROCESSLIST_ID: NULL
   PROCESSLIST_USER: NULL
   PROCESSLIST_HOST: NULL
     PROCESSLIST_DB: NULL
PROCESSLIST_COMMAND: NULL
   PROCESSLIST_TIME: 809
  PROCESSLIST_STATE: System lock
   PROCESSLIST_INFO: INTERNAL DDL LOG RECOVER IN PROGRESS
   PARENT_THREAD_ID: NULL
               ROLE: NULL
       INSTRUMENTED: YES
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

How to repeat:
As far as I can tell, this is what shows up when you start the server and it seems to be what shows up indefinitely as the server runs.

Suggested fix:
On startup, when this thread is initialized, its state and info should be set to empty/null/blank if the thread is indeed not doing any work.

Hello Kolbe,

Thank you for the report.
Confirmed this on 5.6.22/5.7.6.

Thanks,
Umesh

Noted in 5.6.25, 5.7.8, 5.8.0 changelogs.

In the Performance Schema threads table, the PROCESSLIST_STATE and
PROCESSLIST_INFO values did not change for the thread/sql/main main
thread instrument as the thread state changed.

    Bug #19887143 : THREAD/SQL/MAIN DOESN'T CHANGE STATE/INFO AFTER STARTUP
    
    Issue:
      State and Info of main thread was not changing. It was because of
      not resetting its state/info accordingly while doing some startup
      operation when mysql server starts.
    
    Fix:
      Reset the state/info for main thread so that it shows correct state.
