PyMySQL: "RuntimeError: 'cryptography' package is required for sha256_password or caching_sha2_password auth methods"

Solution: pip install cryptography - (https://stackoverflow.com/a/54586797/7058266)

Why I just started seeing this: I recently removed several required dependencies that I didn't think were required: bc6b0cf

Since PyMySQL needs cryptography, I can have it get installed as an optional dependency if using the SeleniumBase MySQL DB plugin.

Update: Installing PyMySQL[rsa] should be enough. (It includes the necessary dependencies.)
