Subject: [PATCH] Bootstrap/Load: Check that either `mysqli_connect()` or
 `mysql_connect()` is available.

This resolves a fatal error and displays an actionable message if the `mysqli` PHP extension is missing.

Previously, `wp_check_php_mysql_versions()` performed an early check whether `mysql`, `mysqli`, or `mysqlnd` extensions are loaded, but that did not work if the `mysqlnd` extension is the only one present.

Checking specifically for `mysqli_connect()` or `mysql_connect()` functions should be a more reliable approach and more closely mirrors the existing checks in the `wpdb` class.

Follow-up to [1955], [4489], [7234], [12732], [19760], [27257], [36434].

Props bgin, desrosj, dimadin, ipajen, hellofromTonya, sc0ttkclark, azaozz, SergeyBiryukov.
Fixes #51988.
