MySQL metadata backend about backy2 HOT 4 OPEN

I just submitted the pull request, I have this running for about a month now without any issues and I just build a new cluster to test backy initdb and a new backup from my Ceph cluster.

@mennozon I've been working on a fork of backy2 for some months now. I'd be interested in adding MySQL/MariaDB as an additional supported database dialect if someone would volunteer as a tester... Please see https://github.com/elemental-lf/benji.

Thanks @elemental-lf, with the help of a colleague I was able to get it up and running for almost a month now.

I'll clean up the changes and submit a pull request so this issue can be closed, feel free to also add it to benji if you like.

@mennozon glad to hear that you're up and running. I'll have a look at your PR when it's ready. I've already made some changes based on your original patch. Benji wasn't affected by the auto column issue as the schema has changed a bit in relation to Backy2.
