🎨 updates for database configuration (#7975)

* 🎨  update configuration files: database

refs #7488

- no default database configuration
- production: default is MySQL

* 🎨  add transport stdout to production for now

refs #7488

- production will log to stdout and file for now
- to reduce the risk of confusing users
- users would not see any stdout and they don't know that Ghost logs into file only in production

* 🎨  sanitize database properties

refs #7488
