 A common security procedure for DB access is to require mutual TLS for the
 DB connection, e.g. as implemented by Google Cloud SQL for their hosted
 MySQL offering.

 This involves specifying a server certificate, client certificate, and
 client key when connecting.

 Django already supports this configuration, it looks like this:



 {{{
 DATABASES = {
         'default': {
             'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.mysql',
             'HOST': db_host,
             'NAME': 'test',
             'USER': 'root',
             'PASSWORD': 'root',
             'OPTIONS': {
                'ssl': {
                     'ca': 'server-ca.pem',
                     'cert': 'client-cert.pem',
                     'key': 'client-key.pem',
                 }
             },
         },
     }
 }}}


 However the dbshell command does not support the client cert params
 ('cert' and 'key'), though it is aware of the server cert param 'ca'.

 Should be a trivial fix to add in support for the other 'ssl' parameters
 required here, I'll take a look.
