mysql2 ignores charset on pool options

[calebdiaz]

mysql2 ignores charset opt specified on pool options, while it works perfectly with mysql lib

mysql.createPool({
...
charset : 'latin1', -> ignored

});

Is this fixed? Or still ongoing? Doing a migration from mysql to mysql2 for a project and I can't seem to get the same results.

Possible that this will be fixed by #3007
