Improved smart scale handling of session and global changes so they're all played against connected replica or in case of

connections so that a subsequent SELECT @@SESSION.transaction_isolation will return the expected value,
even if executed on a replica.

Added user-based authentication to existing host-based authentication to restrict connections per host and per user.
