Summary of Changes

Following #14136 and the related RFC, this PR removes the MySQL database driver supporting the deprecated PHP ext/mysql.

Testing Instructions

Note that JDatabaseDriverMysql and its supporting elements have been removed.

On a server where the configuration is set to public $dbtype = 'mysql'; JDatabaseDriver::getInstance() should try to establish a database connection using ext/mysqli first then ext/pdo. If neither of those available, the database connection is not established.

Documentation Changes Required

Update https://docs.joomla.org/Potential_backward_compatibility_issues_in_Joomla_4 with the removal information.
