mariadb_server: drop MariaDB 10.6, whose community support ended in July 2026 #361

Description

@NavidSassan

Describe the solution you would like

Remove MariaDB 10.6 from the supported versions (vars/main.yml line 5), together with its configuration template and vars file. Community support for 10.6 ended on 2026-07-06, and MariaDB publishes no RHEL 10 packages for it. CONTRIBUTING.md says not to support software versions that are end of life.

Alternatives considered

Keeping 10.6 for RHEL 8 and 9 only. A pending change already makes repo_mariadb refuse versions below 10.11 on RHEL 10.

Additional context

This breaks inventories pinned to 10.6 and needs a Breaking Changes entry naming the upgrade path, for example 10.11 LTS, whose community support runs until 2028-02-16.
