[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/1] php: add --enable-mysqlnd to configure options when using mysql extensions

[Ryan Coe]

Floris, Thomas, All,

I did build the system without my patch and was able to make everything 
work after defining the MySql socket location in my php.ini file.  I 
guess my patch can be marked rejected.  I was thrown off after looking 
at the build log.  The statement "checking whether to enable mysqlnd... 
no" from the configure step led me to think that that mysqlnd was not 
getting built.  If desired, I can submit a patch to add --with-mysql-sock.

On a side note, I am not using MySql version supplied by Buildroot.  I 
have replaced MySql with MariaDB 10.0.
