[#MDEV-25930] RPM Posttrans syntax error

MariaDB-Server POSTTRANS script in 10.5.10 RPMs (both CentOS/RHEL and SLES) causes a shell error on upgrade from earlier versions. This does not prevent the package update from completing, but due to the failed check the intended systemctl restart of the service is not happening ...

E.g. on CentOS/8 with yum, when using "yum update" to upgrade from 10.5.9 to 10.5.10, this is reported as:
