Zabbix 4.0 support

[q1x]

Hi all,

I'd like to add support for the Zabbix 4.0.x versions as this is the new LTS release.
However, I don't know the procedure that was used to generate the mysql create files that are shipped in this formula (Zabbix sources contain 3 separate files).

Does anyone have a step-by-step handy?

First of all I think it's better to stop providing SQL files with formula. Since Zabbix 3.0 Zabbix package provide gzipped SQL file with schema and data, IMO it's better to just use this file. PostgreSQL part of this formula already using this approach.

If you need to concatenate 3 SQL files, schema file must be first, concatenation can be done with simple cat

cat schema.sql data.sql images.sql > create.sql

To use your own sql file.

1. Put your file into folder /salt/fileserver/root/dir/zabbix/files/default/zabbix4.sql on your salt master
2. Add pillar

zabbix-mysql:
  sql_file: /zabbix4.sql

To install Zabbix 4 - add pillar

zabbix:
  lookup:
    version_repo: '4.0'

+1 for this.
Instead we should maybe think about changing the Version default from 2.2 to a more recent version that is actually supported.

Should be solved by #123 once the implementation is resolved.
