k3s can't utilize tls option with mysql external database

[galal-hussein]

Version:
v1.0.0-rc5

Describe the bug
Right now when passing tls flags to k3s with mysql, kine sets a custom tls config with the name kine, which always verify server certificate.

To Reproduce

• start mysql database with tls
• start k3s server with dsn that have tls=skip-verify and pass only cert/key and not the cacrt

Expected behavior
k3s should start without verifying the server cert

Actual behavior
k3s will fail with message: x509: certificate signed by unknown authority

Additional context
https://github.com/rancher/kine/blob/master/pkg/drivers/mysql/mysql.go#L142-L146

this can be solved by passing a custom parameter to the dsn to skip server cert verification and parsing it from kine library

This is referenced in our documentation. So when we fix this bug, we need to update the docs.

Is this still the case? Why close and then remove it from Dev?
