The initial setting of sql_mode affects how MaxScale initially
behaves with respect to autocommit.
When 'set sql_mode=[default|oracle];" is encountered, the query
classifier and autocommit modes are adjusted accordingly.
A custom parser for detecting "set sql_mode=ORACLE" is needed
and writing that is C++ is more convenient than writing it in
C. Consequently, so as to be able to use that parser, mysql_client
must be compiled as C++.
