Looks like it's an incompatibility with mysqlclient 2.1 and MySQL.
Technically, a compatibility change/workaround that was removed. We'll be
making a change in Review Board 4.0.5 to the dependency to cap it, but for
now, both of you can try:
pip3 install "mysqlclient~=2.0"
(Use pip3 or pip3.9 or whatever is appropriate for your setup.)
Restart your web server, and things should work again.
