Category:	MySQL Server: Group Replication	Severity:	S3 (Non-critical)
Version:	8.0.13	OS:	Any
Assigned to:		CPU Architecture:	Any

Description:

After code inspection it was reported that some threads that execute transient or minor tasks in group replication are not registered in the global thread manager.

Such examples include the:
The delayed initialization thread in delayed_plugin_initialization.cc
The group partition thread in group_partition_handling.cc
other might exists.

With no major implications as of now, this should be fixed to avoid issues on global thread monitorization or similar issues.

How to repeat:
Look for mysql_thread_create inside the group replication source directory
Check from these threads the ones that are registered and the ones that aren't

Suggested fix:
Register all threads using  global_thd_manager_add_thd
