Description
## What problem would the enhancement address for VIP?
The PDO_MYSQL module is not enabled on VIP. Plugins reliant on PDO like MailPoet are therefore currently not compatible with VIP.
## Describe the solution you'd like
An error should be thrown on an attempt to create a PDO connection.
## What code should be reported as a violation?
`$db = new PDO();`
## What code should *not* be reported as a violation?
Any attempt to use PDO should be reported.
