Split the combined MySQL/MariaDB section into separate MySQL and MariaDB sections in both backup.rst and restore.rst. MariaDB sections use the native `mariadb-dump` and `mariadb` commands with links to official MariaDB documentation instead of pointing users to mysqldump.

Replace mariadb.com/kb URL with the canonical docs.mariadb.com URL, consistent with the mariadb-dump link already used in backup.rst. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> Signed-off-by: John Molakvoæ (skjnldsv) <skjnldsv@protonmail.com>
MariaDB is the recommended database engine for Nextcloud, not MySQL. Reorder sections so MariaDB comes first and update the introductory sentence accordingly. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> Signed-off-by: John Molakvoæ (skjnldsv) <skjnldsv@protonmail.com>

What changed and why
Split the combined
MySQL/MariaDBsection in bothbackup.rstandrestore.rstinto separate MySQL and MariaDB subsections.Previously the docs told users to "replace
mysqldumpwithmariadb-dump" — a one-liner that gave no commands, no context, and no link to MariaDB docs. The official MariaDB project recommends using their native tooling (mariadb-dump/mariadb) rather than the MySQL aliases.Changes:
backup.rst: separate MySQL and MariaDB sections, MariaDB usesmariadb-dumpwith link to official MariaDB docs, includes 4-byte support variantrestore.rst: separate MySQL and MariaDB sections in both the drop/create block and the import block, MariaDB usesmariadbclient with link to MariaDB KB, includes utf8mb4 variant🖼️ Screenshots
