Description:
Currently, the only way to monitor whether row events are skipped using slave_exec_mode=IDEMPOTENT is to enable log-warnings > 1, and then try to parse out those errors from the error log. 

It would be easier to monitor whether data is getting "lost", with a simple status counter that incremented for each row skipped as well, such as "Slave_idempotent_rows_skipped".

How to repeat:
N/A

Suggested fix:
Add a status variable that counts each row skipped in IDEMPOTENT slave_exec_mode

The current documentation says:

IDEMPOTENT mode causes suppression of duplicate-key and no-key-found errors. 

So there are 2 different conditions here. please make counters for each one.
