Column extended_info too small in goiardi-schema-mysql.sql

[SlashDashAndCash]

Describe the bug

when I run chef-client against goiardi it can't report node state back
to server:

INFO: HTTP Request Returned 500 Internal Server Error: Error 1406: Data too long for column 'extended_info' at row 1

It turned out the report is >100k which is too large for MariaDB's 'text' type of 64k

You should modify the schema:

Oh my, I had overlooked that. (Sorry for just now seeing this, I've been preoccupied with a lot for quite a while, but I'm trying to catch up.) MySQL support's being dropped in the finally-for-real-this-time approaching 1.0.0, but I'll look over the problem and weigh how to best address this and see if I made a similar fix on the postgres side and forgot to make it there as well.

Thanks for bringing it to my attention, though. It's been a slog, but I've turned my attention back to goiardi again and pulled myself over one of the terrible humps recently.
