Documentation Gaps on Adding MySQL to SI in Capturing MySQL Inserts via CDC for APIM 4.2.0

In the Capture MySQL Inserts via CDC section in the doc,

It was mentioned that we have to download mysql-connector-java-5.1.45-bin.jar and add that to the <SI_TOOLING_HOME>/lib path. [1]

This is in the "Before you begin" section as the step 2.

But even though we follow this in 4.2, this leads to the below error.

ERROR {io.siddhi.core.stream.input.source.Source} - Error on 'SweetProductionStream'. Connection to the database lost. Error while connecting at Source 'cdc' at 'insertSweetProductionStream'. Will retry in '5 sec'. (Encoded)

So in 4.2, in order to fix this, we have to follow below 3 steps instead of step 2.

1. Go to Tools > Extension installer
   
2. Search "Change Data Capture - MySQL" and install it
   
3. Restart the SI Tooling

Note that adding the mysql-connector-java-5.1.45-bin.jar to the <SI_TOOLING_HOME>/lib is not needed now.

Open the linked “Capture MySQL Inserts via CDC” documentation for APIM 4.2.0 and inspect its “Before you begin” section, especially step 2. Replace the outdated JAR-copy instruction with the three Extension installer steps described in the issue, and remove the note that the JAR is required. Done means the instructions match the working 4.2.0 setup.
