[PySide] QMYSQL

[Cristián Maureira-Fredes]

Hello Angelo,

Here is the documentation on how to use QMYSQL

https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/sql-driver.html#qmysql

In summary, you need to build the plugin from qtbase,
and build pyside from source since we don't package that plugin with
PySide.
As you might have read, the only plugins we provide
are QSQLITE, QPSQL, and QODBC.

Cheers
