#60853: port mysql8 @8.0.21 fails to build on less than macOS 10.12 due to system

Comment (by chrstphrchvz):
Pinning the version is particularly non-ideal for a port that receives
security updates often; I would be more inclined to check `${os.major}`
and refuse to build on 10.11 or earlier in this case. (Security risks are
probably already compounded by running outdated/insecure OS versions.)
I would be curious if there's an alternative non-EOL MySQL-like port to
recommend instead, but it seems a number of them currently have problems
building on 10.11 and earlier; the only working one I'm aware of is
`mariadb-10.1` (which is EOL in a few months).
