Mysql restart doc

Stephen Turnbull requested to merge stephenjturnbull/mailman-suite-doc:mysql-restart-doc into master

As explained in this thread, when MariaDB (presumably MySQL as well) exits uncleanly, the next start will initiate a recovery process, during which systemd believes the process is started but Mailman cannot connect. In that case, Mailman will fail to start. In this branch, hunk 1 explains that the RDBMS initialization is pure SQL, and will be the same with minor differences for any RDBMS. Hunk 2 explains how to add Restart= and RestartSec= to mailman.service to work around this problem.
