Julien Olivain 5fa2a8d554 package/mariadb: fix mysql.service failing to create log directory
When enabling MariaDB (BR2_PACKAGE_MARIADB=y) and systemd
(BR2_INIT_SYSTEMD=y) in buildroot, the mysqld.service fail to start
with a permission error.  See output of command:

    journalctl --unit=mysqld

Which shows:

    systemd[1]: Starting MySQL database server...
    install[102]: install: can't create directory '/var/log/mysql': Permission denied
    systemd[1]: mysqld.service: Control process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE

Since the service file includes the "User=mysql" directive, the
"ExecStartPre=" is executed as this user, which does not have
permission to create a directory in "/var/log".

This commit fixes this issue by adding the "!" prefix, which will
execute the command with full privileges.  See the systemd.service manual
page entry for "ExecStart=", table "Special executable prefixes":
https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.service.html#ExecStart=
or https://github.com/systemd/systemd/blob/v250/man/systemd.service.xml#L339

Moreover, the "mysql_install_db" invocation does not need this special
prefix, as the "/var/lib/mysql" directory on target is already owned
by the "mysql" user.  The "chown" command is also useless and is
removed in this commit.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded
Linux systems through cross-compilation.

The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text
document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text.
Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html

To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following:

1) run 'make menuconfig'
2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile
3) run 'make'
4) wait while it compiles
5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images

You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot.  Have fun!

Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run
'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations.

Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the
buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org
You can also find us on #buildroot on OFTC IRC.
