Description: This is a re-review request for a package rename as described at
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Package_Renaming_Process.

The package has been renamed before from mysql -> MySQL -> community-mysql.

Here is review request for a third rename "back" to the more proper name
mysql-community.

See related review requests: #917740 and #924345.

There are several reasons for this renaming:

a) mysql-community is the upstream name:
  https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/

b) Fedora Package Guidelines says:
  "When naming a package, the name should match the upstream tarball
  or project name from which this software came."

  Ref: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:NamingGuidelines

c) openSUSE is using this name.

d) Less confusion among users regarding renaming.

e) There are no techical reasons to call the package community-mysql
(with epoch added to MariaDB).

This review also updates the package to latest stable release MySQL
Community Server 5.6.11, released on April 18.

I have done a scratch build here:

MySQL is a multi-user, multi-threaded SQL database server. MySQL is a
client/server implementation consisting of a server daemon (mysqld)
and many different client programs and libraries. The base package
contains the standard MySQL client programs and generic MySQL files.
