[yocto] MySQL recipe for yocto

[Moti Cohen]

Thanks Fred,

I actually tried it and replaced the PV to a newer one, i used 5.6.29
instead of 5.1.40 which is the latest "real" MySQL supported by
openembedded. I also added the relevant SHA numbers etc.

The problem is that the recipe includes quite a few patches that are now
showing many errors when applied during the build. I guess that these
patches are related to the original 5.1.40 version and I'm not sure they
should be applied to the newer one. Unfortunetly, as I'm not an expert, it
seems like it will be a difficult task for me to clean these errors.

I realy hope there's a simpler way go about it :)
