Connecting Securely Using SSL
Configuring Connector/J client to use SSL can be accomplished by the following steps:
1) Import server certificate into the Java default truststore (although tampering the default truststore is not recommended) or by importing it into a custom Java truststore file. Use 'trustCertificateKeyStoreUrl' property to point the driver to the trusted root certificate keystore.
2) Generate the client private key and certificate or use keys and certificate files generated by the MySQL server. Convert the client key and certificate files to a PKCS #12 archive and import the archive into a Java keystore. Use 'clientCertificateKeyStoreUrl' property to point the driver to the client certificate keystore.
3) Use 'clientCertificateKeyStorePassword' and 'trustCertificateKeyStorePassword' properties to specify passwords for the client and trusted certificates keystores.

Support of the 'Use ANSI quotes to quote identifiers' property
Should not be specified via JDBC URL parameter since it will override the default SQL_MODE system variable, instead of appending 'ANSI_QUOTES' to it's value. Proper implementation has to read default SQL_MODE(which depends on the version of the MySQL Server), append 'ANSI_QUOTES' and update the value using "SET SESSION sql_mode = 'modes';" statement.
Design
Currently the two major MySQL versions supported are 5 and 8. We suggest using MySQL Connector/J 8.0 since it is backward compatible with older versions of MySQL and supports all the new features of recent releases.
The suggestion is to move database-plugins module from hydrator-plugins repository to database-plugins repo in data-integrations organization as described in Plugins Repo Split. There is existing code in database-plugins that may be reused for MySQL plugin. We suggest creating a multi-module Maven project where existing `database-plugins` will be a common functionality module for all subsequent DB plugins and each plugin for a specific database (in this case MySQL) will depend on it. Having each DB plugin in a dedicated module allows us to create separately deliverable artifacts, so user can upload only those plugins they need.

Approach
Create a module mysql-plugin in database-plugins project, reuse existing database-plugins code if possible. Add MySQL-specific properties to configuration, add support for MySQL-specific datatypes. Update UI widgets JSON definitions.
