[debian-mysql] Planning 10.1.22 upload to Stretch

[Otto Kekäläinen]

I have now prepared the mariadb-10.1 10.1.22 upload, as it was
released today. I can still wait a bit if somebody wants to have some
commits into this upload..

We have a fairly big contribution waiting here to be accepted if
somebody would have time to help me test that the changes to the
maintainer scripts don't cause any regressions:
https://github.com/ottok/mariadb-10.1/pull/9/commits

There are also a few Lintian issues, reproducible builds fail (but
probably due to a big in diffoscope and not MariaDB).

In general the situation is though pretty good, there are no severe
bugs open, Piuparts and ci.debian.net show all green etc.. Piuparts
however does not have any jessie2stretch testing for the
mariadb-10.0->mariadb-10.1 transition.
