Comment:

 In [changeset:"56475" 56475]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="56475"
 Database: Remove support for the `mysql` extension.

 The `mysql` extension is no longer used in PHP 7 or above. There's a good
 amount of conditional code in `wpdb` and the health checks that can be
 removed now that only the `mysqli` functions are used.

 Fixes #59118
 }}}
