Bug#37716.

1. Test case was rewritten completely.
2. Test covers 3 cases:
 a) do deadlock on slave, wait retries of transaction, unlock slave before lock
timeout;
 b) do deadlock on slave and wait error 'lock timeout exceed' on slave;
 c) same as b) but if of max relay log size = 0;
3. Added comments inline.
4. Updated result file.

+# ==== Purpose ====
+#
+# Waits until a variable from SHOW STATUS has returned a specified 
+# value, or until a timeout is reached.
+#
+# ==== Usage ====
+#
+# let $status_var= Threads_connected;
+# let $status_var_value= 1;
+# --source include/wait_for_status_var.inc
+#
+# Parameters:
+#
+# $status_var, $status_var_value
+#   This macro will wait until the variable of SHOW STATUS 
+#   named $status_var gets the value $status_var_value.  See
+#   the example above.
+# 
+# $status_type= GLOBAL|SESSION
+#   To specify the type (attribute) of status variable and
+#   run either SHOW GLOBAL STATUS or SHOW SESSION STATUS.
+# 
+# $status_var_comparsion
+#   By default, this file waits until $status_var becomes equal to
+#   $status_var_value.  If you want to wait until $status_var
+#   becomes *unequal* to $status_var_value, set this parameter to the
+#   string '!=', like this:
+#     let $status_var_comparsion= !=;
+#
+# $status_timeout
+#   The default timeout is 1 minute. You can change the timeout by
+#   setting $status_timeout. The unit is tenths of seconds.
+#
