AWK in used in Debian SysV-init and postinst scripts to determine
is there enough space starting MariaDB database or create new
database to target destination.
These AWK scripts can be rewrited to use pure SH or help
using Coreutils which is mandatory for usage of MariaDB currently.
Reasoning behind this is to get rid of one very less used dependency
In addition to the binary .deb packages, also remove the version
string from the Debian source package.
Also clean away excess use of __MARIADB_MAJOR_VER__ constant
and add inline note that the whole debian-XX.X.flag file thing
should be removed and replaced by using the new MariaDB server
mysql_upgrade_info file.
Remove version suffix from Debian packages (for example mariadb-server-10.9)
because installing suffixed package removes older version
of package even if it's suffixed (for example mariadb-server-10.7)
This make also Debian package management easier in future MariaDB
version iterations because there is no need for stacking
