feat: add support for MariaDB 10.11 LTS

[cngJo]

The Issue

Currently, the latest supported MariaDB Version to 10.8. The newest (LTS) version of MariaDB is 10.11.

Note: In #4894 are comments about only supporting MariaDB LTS Releases, that's why 10.9 and 10.10 are not added.

How This PR Solves The Issue

• Add MariaDB 10.11 to containers/ddev-dbserver/Makefile
• Add MariaDB 10.11 to allowed config options

Manual Testing Instructions

• ddev config --database=mariadb:10.11 (New project, or delete project, or migrate)
• Make sure it works

Automated Testing Overview

I'm not sure whether there are automated tests for changes like this. If so, I'd of course look into that and adapt them accordingly.

Release/Deployment Notes

[cngJo]

I'm not sure about the changes in the docs.

It's currently phrased as

you can use nearly any MariaDB versions 5.5-10.8

but since currently all 10.x-10.8 versions are supported, I'm not sure whether a two Version gap still qualifies as "nearly all" Versions. Therefore, I've added the notice for 10.11 as

you can use nearly any MariaDB versions 5.5-10.8 or 10.11

Please let me know if that wording should be changed to something else.

Maybe it makes sense to convert this sentence into a table of supported Database Versions.
When you are interested in such a change, I'd be happy to add such a table in a separate Pull Request ;)

Thanks!

This will need to have a new set of images pushed with a new tag. I'll get that going.

[rfay]

This looks great to me, thanks for taking it on. I pushed the necessary image, updated the image tag, and made a couple of small changes to docs and related. We'll see how the tests do!

[cngJo]

Thank you for your help and Input regarding this change and the additional docs changes!

[rfay]

I tested this using a number of approaches and it seemed fine.

• ddev debug migrate-database mariadb:10.11
• ddev describe
• ddev debug migrate database mariadb:10.4

I'm going to go ahead and pull it, but would appreciate it if you could run through the testing process on HEAD @cngJo , see https://ddev.readthedocs.io/en/latest/developers/building-contributing/#testing-latest-commits-on-head

[rfay]

Thanks so much for making this happen!

[cngJo]

@rfay ran through your commands on a fresh build of HEAD locally and everything worked fine!

Thank you!

[rfay]

Thanks for testing! Thanks for the initiative to make this happen and sort out what we should support in the future.

@rfay Could we have a release with this feature, please?

@mbomb007

Could we have a release with this feature, please?

This change was included in v1.22.0-alpha3 and will be included in v1.22.0 which is feature complete since v1.22.0-beta4 from yesterday. At least when I read this tweet correctly.

So I guess we aren't far from the final v1.22.0 release. When you need MariaDB 10.11 earlier, you could install the latest v1.22.0-beta4. See #5015 for more information, how to install the beta release.

[rfay]

I'd sure appreciate if you'd test @mbomb007 , https://github.com/ddev/ddev/releases

I installed DDEV in WSL2 with sudo apt install ddev. How do I switch versions to install a beta release?

[rfay]

The instructions are on the release, https://github.com/ddev/ddev/releases. On Linux, to get prereleases you have to use the script or use homebrew. Unfortunately we don't provide an apt repo for prereleases.

[mbomb007]

I won't be able to look into testing it until next week probably.
