docs: document MariaDB backends in the README - #51
Conversation
The MariaDB GTID support is the reader's headline feature and the README did not mention MariaDB at all, so the release notes would have pointed readers at a page that still described a MySQL-only tool. Cover what an operator actually needs to know: no flag is required, detection is from the version banner, the snapshot comes from @@gtid_binlog_pos, and an empty value is valid rather than a startup failure. State explicitly that the native MariaDB spelling (domain-server-sequence) is not the wire format, because that is the easiest thing to get wrong -- someone reading @@gtid_binlog_pos and comparing it against the reader's output would conclude the reader was broken. The wire form is GTID_Set::to_string(), i.e. domain:start-end. Also note the canonical uint32 domain rule, so 0 and 00 are not silently the same domain. Fix two other MySQL-only claims: the HowTo preamble and the integration-test description, which omitted the MariaDB 10.11 service the TAP suite uses.

Keep the MariaDB example aligned with the TLS requirement.
The example explicitly disables TLS, while the README states that TLS is required and defaults to REQUIRED. Replace the override with REQUIRED, or document this command as a local-only exception and explain its purpose.

Prep for the v2.5.0 release. The MariaDB GTID support merged in #49 is the
reader's headline feature, but the README did not mention MariaDB at all — so
the release notes would point readers at a page that still describes a
MySQL-only tool.
Documents what an operator needs to know:
@@gtid_binlog_pos, since MariaDB has noExecuted_Gtid_Setcolumn.@@gtid_binlog_posis a valid empty position, not a startup failure.uint32, so0and00never name thesame domain.
The one thing most likely to be got wrong is called out explicitly: the native
MariaDB spelling
domain-server-sequenceis not the wire format. Thereader sends
GTID_Set::to_string(), i.e.domain:start-end. Someonecomparing
@@gtid_binlog_posagainst the reader's output would otherwiseconclude the reader was broken.
Also corrects two MySQL-only claims (the HowTo preamble, and the
integration-test description, which omitted the MariaDB 10.11 service the TAP
suite uses).
Docs only — no code change. The new section was written against the merged
implementation in #49 and cross-checked against the reader's own
--helpoutput and the test assertions.
Blocks cutting v2.5.0: the release notes reference the README as the option
and configuration reference, so it should describe the released behaviour.
