Prevent severe dpkg failure if an incompatible data directory (e.g. 5.7) is found

Don't abort dpkg execution, rather move the previous data directory to a new
location and let dpkg complete properly. Leave it do the user to sort out
any potential export/import of data if needed.

Also remove the old downgrade warning behaviour. Bug reports on Launchpad
have shown that users don't know how to recover if dpkg abruptly aborts
like is has done in legacy MySQL Debian packaging downgrades.
