to avoid duplication of keys and properties I suggest to simply refer to the
existence of the contrib db key
if mysql57-mysqld exists in configuration db and its status is enabled we
backup it.
if mysql56-mysqld exists in configuration db and its status is enabled we
backup it.
if mysql55-mysqld exists in configuration db and its status is enabled we
backup it.
if mariadb exists in configuration db and its status is enabled we backup it.
if one disable it, it will stop backup. If one uninstalls without disabling you
will get error, and to remove the error just disable or delete the
configuration key for the db
You might add for each db a autobackup property defaulted to enabled unless it
has been define and set to disabled. In case one want to live on the edge and
not backup on mysql server.

except that your conf file once generated will always be present, templates
are not meant to delete the file if it is empty, what happens if file is
empty. We might rather to update the cron sript too to call individually the
files if you get errors.
