Bug #90264 Some file operations in mf_iocache2.c are not instrumented

Description:
my_b_append_tell(), my_b_fill() and my_b_filelength() functions from 'mf_iocache2.c' use non-instrumented file tell/seek/read functions (my_tell(), my_seek() and my_read()) instead of their instrumented version (mysql_file_tell(), mysql_file_seek() and mysql_file_read()).

This causes inaccurate statistics in PERFORMANCE_SCHEMA.

How to repeat:
Run
./mysql-test/mtr --debug-server perfschema.relaylog

"============ Performance schema on master ============"
 select
 substring(file_name, locate("master-", file_name)) as FILE_NAME,
 EVENT_NAME,
 if (count_read > 0, "MANY", "NONE") as COUNT_READ,
 if (count_write > 0,"MANY", "NONE") as COUNT_WRITE,
 if (sum_number_of_bytes_read > 0, "MANY", "NONE") as SUM_NUMBER_OF_BYTES_READ,
 if (sum_number_of_bytes_write > 0, "MANY", "NONE") as SUM_NUMBER_OF_BYTES_WRITE
 from performance_schema.file_summary_by_instance
 where file_name like "%master-%" order by file_name;

This query (and similar) should return 'MANY' for 'COUNT_READ' and 'SUM_NUMBER_OF_BYTES_READ' instead of 'NONE'

Suggested fix:
Change my_tell() / my_seek() / my_read() to mysql_file_tell() / mysql_file_seek() / mysql_file_read() in 'mf_iocache2.c'.

Fixed in 5.5.62, 5.6.42, 5.7.24, 8.0.13.

Previously, file I/O performed in the I/O cache in the mysys library
was not instrumented, affecting in particular file I/O statistics
reported by the Performance Schema about the binary log index file.
Now, this I/O is instrumented and Performance Schema statistics are
accurate. Thanks to Yura Sorokin for the contribution.
