FreeBSD Port: databases/p5-DBD-mysql

Could the requirement for mysql56-client be bumped to mysql57-client?  The 5.6 client does not support SSL/TLS by default, but 5.7 does.  Additionally, I’m not sure if 5.6 is involved in the recent CVE, but it seems the 5.7 client is not.

Library dependencies:
libmysqlclient.so.18 : databases/mysql56-client <http://www.freshports.org/databases/mysql56-client/>

Previously, I believe the justification for mysql56-client was a change in how the 5.7 client handled $dbh->{mysql_insert_id}.  Maybe that’s since been resolved?
