SSL connection is required

[Iridias]

The plugin does not support SSL when connecting to the database.
For Wordpress itself, one can specify
define('MYSQL_CLIENT_FLAGS', MYSQLI_CLIENT_SSL);
but this setting is ignored by this plugin.

Resulting in the error-message:
PHP message: WP Grid: SSL connection is required. Please specify SSL options and retry.
and the website only showing:

WP Grid could not connect to database.

This is a security-issue, when a remote database shall be used.
Please implement SSL-support for database-connections!
