Bug description:  Mysqlnd extension needs to read my.ini file for sanity

Description:
------------
http://au2.php.net/manual/en/migration53.incompatible.php
states that the Mysqlnd driver doesn't read the my.ini file but 
instead that mysqli_options() should be used to tell PHP about 
settings.

Can I plead the developers to have a mysqlnd.inifile option or 
similar?

This latest change is very regressive: it means that, for instance, if 
your database files are stored in a non-standard location, e.g. a data 
rather than OS C: disk (as specified in my.ini), or any other 
performance-related setting, these all have to be manually added to 
script files, making them completely non-portable, or editing through 
third-party apps (making it time-consuming to upgrade).

If such an ini option were added, might it just be a case of just 
parsing the specified file and passing the found values into whatever 
interface mysqli_options is using?

Reproduce code:
---------------
n/a

Expected result:
----------------
n/a

Actual result:
--------------
n/a
