mysql: decode binlog rows by column name when binlog_full_metadata=true
Refactors `pack_mysql_row()` to accept `gtid_set` and `binlog_full_metadata` parameters. When `binlog_full_metadata=true`, columns are matched by name from the wire row to the table descriptor (safe under reordering). When false, falls back to position-based matching (original behavior, required for `binlog_row_metadata=MINIMAL`). Adds diagnostic helpers `decode_error()` and `describe_row_shape()` for richer error context. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
