Revert "Return correct client library version number instead of"
In MariaDB Server 10.3.38 (https://github.com/MariaDB/server/tree/mariadb-10.3.38) with submodule libmariadb @ d204e83 the file libmariadb/mariadb_lib.c has function mysql_get_client_version() which emits the wrong version, or at least a completely different version than what it had been doing for the past 8 years. This was because of commit made on January 2023 (d204e83). This caused some consumers of the library to start failing. The issue with libqt5sql5-mysql failing was reported in https://bugs.debian.org/1031863. Libraries *must* have a stable ABI, including the version they advertise. If a library changes behaviour in a backwards incompatible manner, even if it is to fix a bug, it should bump the version and not just silently get shipped. This reverts commit d204e83 to put back as it existed in MariaDB Server 10.3.37 and earlier.
