There was no mention in conditional updates devref on what kind of error
messages are we expected to return with conditional updates and why we
decided to go with generic errors instead of specific errors like we had
before.

When running a delete CG operation on a MySQL DB engine we'll get an
error from the DB: "You can't specify target table 'consistencygroups'
for update in FROM clause".
This is caused by a non standard behavior only in MySQL, as SQLite and
PostgreSQL work as expected, on filter `cg_creating_from_src` that
checks that we are not using the CG we are trying to delete to create
another CG at this very moment, CGs that were previously created from
this CG are not considered.
This patch changes the way we perform the filter using a select subquery
as a workaround for MySQL unexpected behavior and updates devref to warn
about this unexpected MySQL behavior.

Closes-Bug: #1588487
This patch adds developer's documentation for conditional update
functionality used to remove API races.
