mariadb_config (aka mysql_config) suggest the use of -l mariadb

[root@slurmctl build]# mariadb_config

However, the library name is mariadbclient:

[root@slurmctl build]# rpm -qf /usr/lib64/libmariadbclient.a
MariaDB-devel-10.2.25-1.el7.centos.x86_64
[root@slurmctl build]# ls -l /usr/lib64/libmariadb.a
ls: cannot access /usr/lib64/libmariadb.a: No such file or directory
