MariaDB 11.2 EOL - move fineract mariadb recommended version to 11.4?

[Adam Monsen <am...@mifos.org>]

Hi all! Sorta new guy here. 👋

The Fineract readme <https://github.com/apache/fineract> says MariaDB 11.2
is required, but the end-of-life date for 11.2
<https://mariadb.org/about/#maintenance-policy> is coming up in a few
weeks. I suggest migrating dev instructions to refer to MariaDB 11.4, which
goes EOL in May 2029. Thoughts?

https://github.com/apache/fineract/pull/4131

I upgraded my local MariaDB dev database to 11.4 and performed a few
cursory GETs and PUTs via the Fineract API--just what I've learned to do so
far. Nothing broke. I didn't run all the tests though.

I didn't see any obvious red flags in
https://mariadb.com/kb/en/changes-improvements-in-mariadb-11-4/ .

I requested a JIRA account at issues.apache.org.

Hello Adam,

Thank you. The proposed DB version 11.4 is Long Term Support, which has a
EOL until May 2029
