[debian-mysql] MySQL 5.6 packaging changes to consider 5.6 as alternative

[Akhil Mohan]

Hi,

I have been working on some discussed changes to the MySQL 5.6 packages
over last two weeks. The changes are concentrated towards making MySQL
5.6 an alternative installation to MySQL 5.5. The major changes have
been listed in the changelog for reference. I would like to request a
review on this patch before integration to the repo. For additional
visibility on the changes, I have also attached the `git status` output
separately.

Please let me know if you have any comments related to this patch.

Regards,
Akhil
