Kohana Upgrade + Database Support

[funnylookinhat]

With PHP 5.5, mysql_connect() and it's associated functions are officially deprecated. We need to migrate the base framework from Kohana 3.2 to 3.4 ( or whatever is most recently available ) and ensure that the MySQLi database driver works and implements correctly.

PHP 5.5 is default in Ubuntu 14.04 - this should be accomplished ( at the latest ) in time for that release.

MySQLi Support: https://github.com/kohana/database/blob/3.4/develop/classes/Kohana/Database/MySQLi.php

Kohana 3.4: https://github.com/kohana/core/tree/3.4/develop

NOTE: All ORM functions that return a result with

->find_all();

will now have to use

find_all()->as_array();

Per a change in 3.3 - unverified in 3.4.

Revising this issue to represent Ubuntu 14.04 / PHP 5 support. Re-assigned to v1.2.

[ Solved for v1.2 ] Moving to Milestone v1.3

Pending: Proper MySQLi support.

Per #201 discussion and outside planning - this should also include changing the deployment method of Kohana and any other sub-modules to use composer.

Old ticket, but figured I'd post here as well. Kohana 3.3 supports MySQLi. They however changed how autoloading works, so every application class will need its filename updated, (app/classes/beans/report.php for example needs to be app/classes/Beans/Report.php as the class name is Beans_Report).

I ran into this issue because our environment is MariaDB 10 with PHP 7.0, which completely removed those functions! :(
