 We need to document how to set up a MySQL database to run in unit tests,
 namely:

 >1. Install MySQL on the system and ensure that it runs at startup.
 >
 >2. Create the MySQL DHCP database and authorised user for the tests:
 >
 > 2.1 Log into MySQL as root
 >
 >    % mysql -u root -p
 >    Enter password:
 >       :
 >    mysql>
 >
 > 2.2 Create the database with:
 >
 >    mysql> CREATE DATABASE keatest;
 >
 > 2.3 Create the user under which the unit test client will connect to the
 database.
 >
 >    mysql> CREATE USER 'keatest'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'keatest';
 >
 > 2.4 Grant the user permissions to access the "kea" database:
 >
 >    mysql> GRANT ALL ON keatest.* TO 'keatest'@'localhost';
 >
 >3. When you run configure, add the switch --with-dhcp-mysql to the
 configure command line.  This should point to the mysql_config program:
 without a value, it should default to the correct location.

 The logical place for this would seem to be in
 src/lib/dhcpsrv/database_backends.dox
