[DRE-maint] Bug#848458: diaspora-common: Should Depends/Recommends the metapackage default-mysql-*

Hi! 

This package depends (or recommends) direclty on Oracle MySQL. It
should instead depend on the default-mysql-* metapackages, and end up
being installed with the MySQL implementation Debian has chosen to
use, currently MariaDB instead of Oracle MySQL. 

Announcement of the new default-mysql-* metapackages:
https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2016/09/msg00000.html 

Wiki: https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/MySQL/default-mysql-server 

MBF: https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2016/11/msg00832.html 

Please update the depencies accordingly. In most cases the required
change follows this pattern: 

* BEFORE: Depends: mysql-server | virtual-mysql-server 

* AFTER: Depends: default-mysql-server | virtual-mysql-server 

As this is a mass bug filing, the exact solution above might not
apply to directly. For example, if your package depends on some other
Oracle MySQL package, like mysql-client, then use to
default-mysql-client. 

Thanks, 

Otto
