The MariaDB C/C++ connector requires SSL connections by default since versin 3.4.0:
https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb-connector-c-3-4-0-release-notes/
However that was made possible by creation of 'zero configuration SSL':
https://mariadb.org/mission-impossible-zero-configuration-ssl/
The first LTS that contains it is MariaDB 11.4
Before that the SSL still can be set up, but it requires significant configuration.
The version we currently have in this distribution is MariaDB 10.11.
In order for all utilities and associated software to still work 'out of the box',
without extensive SSL configurations setup, I decided to disable this option.
--
This option is supposed to be re-enabled when MariaDB >= 11.4 is introduced
as the default MariaDB major version in the distribution.

mariadb-connector-c is not part of the flatpak runtime, and therefore is
built in /app as a dependency of flatpaks which require it. Therefore,
my.cnf must respect %_sysconfdir rather than use /etc.
Since version 3.3.6, the build FTBFS with LTO flags.
Disable them as a temporary workaround, so the version 3.3.8,
which is required by mariadb-connector-odbc-3.1.20 could be built.

MariaDB upstream switched from using the 3.2 major version of CONC-C to using 3.3 major version CONC-C silently between MariaDB 10.6.8 and 10.6.9 in this commit:
https://github.com/MariaDB/server/commit/c1ea55ddb0
on 08/2022. From that point on, all MariaDB versions 10.(>=6) are using the CONC-C 3.3, and the CONC-C 3.2 stopped being developed

Note:
The CONC-C 3.1 is still used to this day in MariaDB 10.5.
MariaDB 10.5.19 uses CONC-C 3.1.20
- %%cmake macro covers the %%{set_build_flags}, so they are not needed
That also means, the debug buildchnages to the build flags must be done AFTER the
%%cmake macro was used.
- %%cmake macro also covers the CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="%%{_prefix}" option
- Default to %%cmake commands instead fo %%make commands
- Update the WITH_UNITTEST macro to the one upstream use now
- Introduce macro to enable / disable testusite (and building of the *-test subpackage)
