[ARGUS] argus-clients and mysql8

[Andreas Hasenack]

Ah, indeed, but it looks like at least the debian package does not
include a -dev binary package that installs the include files. It does
ship examples, but I'm not sure how the maintainer expects them to be
built if there are no shipped include files.

The attached patch I believe represents what you meant earlier, and
the resulting deb is linked with mysql8:

$ dpkg --info ./argus-client_3.0.8.2-6ubuntu1_amd64.deb |grep mysql
 Depends: libc6 (>= 2.29), libgeoip1 (>= 1.6.12), libmysqlclient21 (>=
8.0.11), libncurses6 (>= 6), libreadline8 (>= 6.0), libtinfo6 (>= 6),
libwrap0 (>= 7.6-4~), zlib1g (>= 1:1.1.4), perl:any

Does this patch look ok?
