Perhaps it is lack of a maintainer which caused it to fall behind. I don't use 
this package, so I don't really know.  I can see there was a bug filed back in 
January, requesting the package version is updated.  It received no replies:

https://bugs.gentoo.org/890762

For a more authoritative answer you could try to get in touch with the dev 
team looking after mysql and its derivatives:

https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:MySQL

When packages are no longer maintained they are eventually removed from the 
tree.  I don't see percona on the list of orphan packages:

https://qa-reports.gentoo.org/output/maintainer-needed.html

If it proves difficult to get hold of the mysql devs, the Treecleaner project 
members may know what is planned for percona-server:

HTH.
