All packages in group 'essential' are by default installed on all
Debian and Ubuntu systems, and there is no need to mark them as
dependencies for any binary.
We have carried along this patch as a patch inside our sources
since 2012 (commit cfd4fcb0bc).
The validity of this has thus been vetted in production for years
and the review done now did not find otherwise.
A race in dash causes mysqld_safe to occasionally loop infinitely.
Fix by using bash instead.

As this is the last patch, we can also clean away usage of dpatch.

This same patch has been used also in MySQL packaging at Oracle
and in downstream Debian.org packages for both MySQL and MariaDB.

Add libzstd-dev as a build dependency to the server and libzstd1 as a
runtime dependency for rocksdb. libzstd is practially a mandatory
compression library to ensure adequate performance for RocksDB.
Added --skip-test-db option to mysql_install_db. If specified, no test
database created and relevant grants issued.
Removed --skip-auth-anonymous-user option of mysql_install_db. Now it is
covered by --skip-test-db.
Dropped some Debian patches that did the same.
Removed unused make_win_bin_dist.1, make_win_bin_dist and
mysql_install_db.pl.in.
There is no need for MariaDB Backup to be versioned. Other packages are
very unlikely to need to depend on a certain generation of this package.
Also for MariaDB Backup to run, it does not need the server, but client,
and from client only core parts.
It will only build if there is network access, which is a strict no-go
for Linux distributions. Thus the AWS plugin needs to be a custom built
only special plugin that is not built as part of the normal sources.
This fixes the build error in e.g. Launchpad:
Performing download step (git clone) for 'aws_sdk_cpp'
cd "/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/builddir/plugin/aws_key_management" && /usr/bin/cmake ..
Cloning into 'aws-sdk-cpp'...
fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/awslabs/aws-sdk-cpp.git/':
Could not resolve host: github.com
RocksDB configure step checks that platform is 64-bit and little endian,
so limit the .deb packages to be built only on those platforms.

A non-MariaDB.org contributor introduced the epoch 1: in Debian.
There is no way to revert it, so we just need to adapt to it to
ensure no 10.3 installation would downgrade to that version in
Debian/Ubuntu, as 1: is considered higher than any version before.
There was a lot of files generated by the sources that were not installed
in any package. This fixes most of those issues, but not all. Files still
outside any package are in the not-installed, which is used by dh_install.
Also make sure all configuration files are installed to the correct
location that matches layout used by Debian official packages.
Matching libmariadb-dev package contents in official Debian repositories,
the MariaDB Connector/C files should go into a folder using the 'mariadb'
name. For compatibility with sources that expect to find 'mysql' stuff,
create a symlink from include/mysql to include/mariadb.
Using this package any source that expects MySQL Client libraries should
build without changes. Sources that expect MariaDB Connector C should
build using only libmariadb-dev.
Current MariaDB Connector/C does not build quite identically in
this source tree compared to how it build in Debian official.
The remaining differences are tracked in MDEV-14921.
