Description

Background: #4248, ​#WP41490.

The ​Requirements page currently lists MySQL 5.6 or greater and MariaDB 10.1 or greater as recommended.

In ​https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/41490#comment:11, @JavierCasares pointed out that these versions are no longer supported and should be bumped to MySQL 5.7 and MariaDB 10.2.

Per the ​MariaDB maintenance policy, support for version 10.2 ends in May 2022, at which point this should be revisited again.
