Fails to build with mysql-5.7

[Lars Tangvald]

The package will fail to build with mysql 5.7 for a few reasons:

From debian/start-mysqld_and_run.sh
* mysql_install_db is run with the removed options --force and --skip-grant-tables, which fails
* mysql_install_db needs to be run with --insecure, or a random root password will be generated
* the test database is no longer automatically created

Tests:
The test for numeric-only database doesn't create the user it needs.

Note that we strongly recommend updating the package to use mysqld --initialize instead of mysql_install_db
