 In [changeset:"31783"]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="31783"
 WPDB: HHVM doesn't support passing a DB link to
 `mysqli_get_client_version()`. While we usually pass a DB link to every
 `ext/mysql` and `mysqli` function call, we don't really need to do that
 here, as there's no way for the client library to change mid page load.

 Another fun fact is that `mysql_get_client_version()` doesn't exist, but
 `mysql_get_client_info()` (along with `mysqli_get_client_info()') do. So,
 we're switching to them, in order to add a pleasing symmetry to the client
 version check.

 Fixes #31644
