v5.001

This is a release from the master branch.

Changelog

• Only support MySQL 8.x as MySQL 5.7 is going EOL soon
• Remove use of MYSQL_OPT_RECONNECT
• Remove option to disable SSL/TLS at compile time
• Only support MySQL 5.7 GA client libraries
• Remove support for MySQL Connector/C 6.0.x
• Cleanup ifdef's for pre-5.7 MySQL
• Cleanup ifdef's for MySQL 4.x and earlier
• Remove MySQL Embedded support (libmysqld)
• Replace my_bool with bool
• Remove MySQL Fabric support
