Change subject: Add link to MariaDB to MySQL's software link.
......................................................................

Add link to MariaDB to MySQL's software link.

Since MariaDB is a drop-in replacement for MySQL, and there are
concerns about MySQL's future, as evidenced by Wikimedia's
move to MariaDB, it IMO makes sense to provide both links.
The software link is rendered in Special:Version and on the
installer page, where having the two links present should
not cause any issues. It rectifies the situation where
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Version lists MariaDB
as the database under the MySQL heading pointing to Oracle's
website.

Note - this also changes the link to MySQL's site from http
to https.
