Code Quality Improvements

• Fixed mysql_fetch_field()
• Added support for socket connections
• Added many more tests
• Switched to GitHub Actions instead of Travis CI

With the release of PHP 8.0 this package is effectively complete. There are no supported versions of PHP 5.x, and with no backwards incompatible changes to ext/mysqli in PHP 8.0, we can effectively rule out any more changes needed in this package till the next major PHP version.

I don't intend to ever tag a stable version of this package as it should not be used.
