Bug description:  Set connection charset via php.ini option

Description:
------------
Hi,

As I'm tired of patching various user-installed php-engines to work
correctly with newer MySQL versions (4.1.x +) that require connection
character set to be specified, I decided to solve the problem at the php
level.
So, I patched both mysql and mysqli extensions (based on an idea found
somewhere in internet).
Result is available at:

http://bubble.nsys.by/projects/patches/php/php-5.2.5-mysql-client-charset.patch

The patch introduces two more php.ini directives:
mysql.client_charset and
mysqli.client_charset

As those directives are optional, the patch shouldn't break any existing
functionality, but it could *really* help users who's native language is
not latin and who want to use some php-scripted engine with mysql
'out-of-the-box'.

Best,
Vladislav Bogdanov
