Major changes:
- new installation layout, resembling RPM packages:
- client = Client Utilities + Development Libraries + Shared components
- server = MySQL Server + Embedded
- new build system: cmake instead of autotools
- fewer port knobs
Expect various breakages, but if we are lucky this could become the new default
mysql port.
- Add the possibility to specify the database directory in rc.conf
- Move database creation from post-install stage into startup script
- Add the possibility to specify additional command-line arguments
to be passed to mysqld_safe on startup
