 Database: Remove back-compat for database servers that don't support
 `utf8mb4`.

 Since WordPress 6.5, the minimum supported version of MySQL and MariaDB is
 5.5.5. This means all supported database servers now support the `utf8mb4`
 character set and therefore the conditional logic for this is no longer
 necessary.
