5.5.5- prefix should not be added if all backends are MariaDB 11

Details

    • MXS-SPRINT-198

    Description

      Due the fact, that 5.5.5. hack will be removed in MariaDB 11 (MDEV-28910)
      the same should be possible with Maxscale.

      Some applications like the security scanner telstra detects MariaDB as
      version MariaDB 5.5.5 and throw Security false alarms for MySQL 5.5.5,
      which are fixed since many years,
      so avoiding adding 5.5.5 must be an optional possible option.

            So the desired behavior is to not send the 5.5.5- prefix when configured with a version string of 11.0 or higher?

            MaxScale now follows the same behavior that MariaDB does and only appends the 5.5.5 prefix for MariaDB 10 version strings.

            There should be a possibility to remove the version string,
            Server have the possibility to set. a fake version to override the addition of
            "5.5.5." prefix.
            Maxscales "version_string" not work in the same way.
            So the request is to esablish a method to avoid the addition of the fake 5.5.5 in some way.

            I'll still close this as Fixed as the version_string can now be set to MariaDB 11 after which the 5.5.5- prefix is not added.
