Mediawiki requires patch to work with MariaDB 12

Description:

MariaDB 12 changed its read-only status from a boolean to an enum and presents this status as "ON"/"OFF". Casting these enum values to boolean in PHP results in true, causing MediaWiki to now treat the database as being read-only. On my system, one symptom of this is that login attempts are denied to prevent CSRF, presumably due to session tokens no longer being written to the database.

Additional info:

• package version(s): mediawiki-1.44.0-1, mariadb-12.0.2-1
• config and/or log files:
• link to upstream bug report, if any:
  • https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T401570
  • https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/MDEV-37429

Steps to reproduce:

1. Install mariadb-11.8.2-1 and mediawiki-1.44.0-1. Configure MediaWiki to require logins.
2. Upgrade to mariadb-12.0.2-1.
3. Observe that you can no longer log into MediaWiki.

The upstream MediaWiki bug report was resolved by the following patch: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/plugins/gitiles/mediawiki/core/+/54d2416fbcb3a7d0e2a197ca58a755134bd18866%5E%21/#F0

This issue was fixed for me by applying the following analogous patch to my system:
