    Database: Bump the recommended version of MySQL to 8.4.

    MySQL 8.0 reached end of life on 30 April 2026 but was still the recommended version in `readme.html` and Site Health. MySQL 8.4 is an LTS release supported until April 2032, and has been tested in CI since [59280].

    Follow-up to [59280], [62170].

    Props lucatume, desrosj, masteradhoc.
    Fixes #66637.
