Switch from MySQL to MariaDB connector library
Created by: nshahquinn
I tested this with version 1.0.11 of the MariaDB connector library, which is the latest which works with the version of the MariaDB C library that's installed on the analytics clients (3.1.16). I'm not sure if that library is easily upgradable; if it is, it might be worth doing that and then bumping the version of the Python connector.
