[MariaDB] Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server. plugin type was = 'caching_sha2_password'

Description

Using MariaDB 8.0.22-0ubuntu0.20.04.3 as a backend fails because the plugin does not support caching_sha2_password.

Reproduction steps

  1. Install LuckPerms
  2. Configure MariaDB backend in config.yml as usual
  3. Start server
  4. If specified MariaDB server is version 8.0 or higher and using caching_sha2_password as the password algorithm, the error appears in console.

Expected behaviour

LuckPerms authenticates with MariaDB and uses it as a storage backend

Environment details

  • Server type/version: Tuinity version git-Tuinity-"b12d0cc" running version 1.16.5
  • LuckPerms version: LuckPerms-Bukkit-5.3.37
  • MariaDB version: 8.0.22-0ubuntu0.20.04.3

Any other relevant details

I do not have this issue with any of my other plugins that connect to the same MariaDB server. This issue is specific to LuckPerms

According to this, MariaDB doesn't currently support this authentication mechanism. There is an issue linked on that page that may explain why, but you can find it here if you're too lazy to find it for yourself on that page.
