pt-table-sync checks changing binlog_format on slaves and exists if that does not work. (RDS)

pt-table-sync connects to all machines and changes the binlog_format=STATEMENT. However, binlog_format cannot be changed when using Amazon RDS (there is no SUPER privilege).

This breaks pt-table-sync to work with RDS.

In the example below, checksumming is being done between a regular database system replicating to a RDS system.
No slaves are attached to the RDS slave.

Then it should be possible for pt-table-sync to work successfully, as long as the master binlog_format can become STATEMENT (which is the case in this example)
This might need a new advanced option to disable this check.

This tool requires binlog_format=STATEMENT, but the current binlog_format is set to MIXED and an error occurred while attempting to change it. If running MySQL 5.1.29 or newer, setting binlog_format requires the SUPER privilege. You will need to manually set binlog_format to 'STATEMENT' before running this tool.
