Bug Description
In MySQL 5.7.15 the only tests in the mtr suite written in python were rewritten in perl, to remove the python dependency, but this added a dependency on libjson-perl, without which those tests will fail.
Fix is to change the dependency in d/control
[Impact]
If libjson-perl isn't installed (which it won't be in an sbuild build) then the tests main.myisam_
The change replaces the old python dependency with one on libjson-perl, and adds a build-dep on libjson-perl
[Test case]
Build package with sbuild and observe the test log
[Regression Potential]
This change has been in Yakkety for some time (5.7.15-0ubuntu2).
Removing the python dependency could cause issues if there were some unknown dependency on it still lingering.
