Run a manual mysql_upgrade

This step is usually not necessary.

=== "docker compose (Plugin)"

``` bash
docker compose stop mysql-mailcow watchdog-mailcow
docker compose run --rm --entrypoint '/bin/sh -c "gosu mysql mysqld --skip-grant-tables & sleep 10 && bash && exit 0"' mysql-mailcow
```

=== "docker-compose (Standalone)"

``` bash
docker-compose stop mysql-mailcow watchdog-mailcow
docker-compose run --rm --entrypoint '/bin/sh -c "gosu mysql mysqld --skip-grant-tables & sleep 10 && bash && exit 0"' mysql-mailcow

mysql_upgrade
exit
