This introduces a "nucleitcp" protocol that Nuclei will use when making MySQL connections as part of its templates. Previously, this would register (and de-register!) a custom "tcp" dialer, and that applied globally, so any piece of software that used a MySQL database and included nuclei in SDK mode would have its database connections ripped out from under it due to the dialer hijacking. By using "nucleitcp" as the protocol, we are free to do whatever we want with the dialer and not impact any other packages. Within our `BuildDSN` function, we quietly replace the protocol to "nucleitcp" if it was "tcp", so nuclei developers don't have to do anything special to use this functionality; it will always do it.
