Summary
Currently, MySQL plugin assumes utf-8 encoding when decoding bytes to String, reason being that MySQL by default uses a subset of utf-8 as its default encoding (utf8mb3/4). However, it seems that it is possible to configure MySQL to use non utf-8 encoding as well, for which we should provide support - maybe in terms of a knob for the user ?
Why should this be worked on?
Reading Mysql data.
