Subject: [PATCH] MDL-87946 github: Update GHA Database connections

Both the pgsql and mysql steps we were using use `docker:stable`, which
has been abandoned and is not a recommended approach. They are also both
abandoned.

This commit moves to using a service entry for postgres; and a manual
step for mysql.

We can't use the services entry for MySQL because GHA does not support
providing arguments to service containers.
