    Description

      (clone of MDEV-38328)

      Ask users to give MariaDB a star by having an extra line in the MariaDB client prompt:

      Welcome to the MariaDB monitor.  Commands end with ; or \g.
      Your MariaDB connection id is X
      Server version: Y
      Copyright (c) 2000, 2018, Oracle, MariaDB Corporation Ab and others.
       
      Help others discover MariaDB. Star it on GitHub:
      https://github.com/MariaDB/server
       
      Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the current input statement.
       
      MariaDB [(none)]>
      

      Additionally, have this extra line in server logs:

      [Note] Help others discover MariaDB. Star it on GitHub: https://github.com/MariaDB/server
      

      This change was originally done in https://github.com/MariaDB/server/pull/4262 (MDEV-38328) in a way that it is easy to cherry-pick to older releases. That is now pending in https://github.com/MariaDB/server/pull/5266

      Text can later be changed to promote something else once MariaDB has surpassed MySQL in GitHub stars.
