Bug description:
  In init.php file there is a check to make sure that if one is using a
  mysql database they are using either database type 'mysqli' or
  'mysql'. And they relate to drivers in htdocs/lib/adodb/drivers/

  But we removed the ADODB driver for 'mysql' so we can't fall back to that one any more.
  See commit 2f19a42ddd6af732e40b1aae9359ee80e28f9111

  We need to tidy up the init.php file (around line 133) to throw error
  if 'mysqli' PHP extension is not installed rather than trying to use
  'mysql' as database type.
