JENA-1192: Support for the MariaDB JDBC driver.


> Support the MariaDB JDBC driver
> -------------------------------
>
>                 Key: JENA-1192
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JENA-1192
>             Project: Apache Jena
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: SDB
>    Affects Versions: Jena 3.1.0
>            Reporter: Andy Seaborne
>            Assignee: Andy Seaborne

> The MariaDB JDBC is compatible with the MySQL JDBC driver. It has different 
> license; the MariaDb JDBC driver is LGPL and the MySQL JDBC driver is GPL 
> with a special FOSS exception.
> In addition, the MariaDB JDBC driver response to "jdbc:mysql:..." URLs.
> Supporting the driver has two parts: 
> When MariaDB is explicitly chosen in "sdb:sdbType", we have a registration 
> for  "MariaDB" to map to "org.mariadb.jdbc.Driver" and ideally build the 
> right JDBC URL for the case when the URL is not explicitly provided.
> The other part is for a setup is for MySQL but only the MariaDB JDBC driver 
> is on the classpath. We can treat this as a special-case during the loading 
> of the JDBC driver so if looking for the MySQL classname 
> ""com.mysql.jdbc.Driver" fails, the code also looks for 
> "org.mariadb.jdbc.Driver".
> At no point is Jena (source or binary) shipping either JDBC driver.
