If you select File-Saves As from the menu, you should see a drop down box labelled Data Format at the top of the dialog window. "xml" is selected by default.Click on the down arrow and select the format you wish to use.
GnuCash is normally built by default with the support for the various database options. You would have had to use an explicit switch to turn it off during the build if you built GNuCash yourself. http://www.howtodoityourself.org/set-mysql-gnucash-backend.html This may help with the general setup even though a bit dated. Note "$apt install libdbd-mysql" is a support library which is not necessarily present during the build of GNuCash and may need to be explicitly installed To setup the MYSQL server on Linux a google search should give you a procedure appropriate for your OS.
