The reason for implementing a pure MySQL client was that there's no good
MySQL client
library that has a permissive license like the BSL.

libmysqlclient is GPL'd and is generally kind of terrible.

Postgres doesn't really have this problem so there's not much of an onus to
make a native Asio
implementation or anything like that. Instead, this is just standard Asio
where you have multiple
execution contexts and you're communicating between them.
