Description
When MySqlConnector performs a connection reset, it also issues a SET NAMES
statement (see #66) to work around https://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=97633.
MariaDB doesn't have this bug: https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/MDEV-18281.
Although we currently have pipelining (#1089) which avoids multiple round trips, it may still improve efficiency slightly to detect MariaDB and skip the SET NAMES
packet.
