Title: Update mysql formula to listen on 127.0.0.1 by default

It's generally not a good idea to allow remote connections to MySQL. Make it safe by default. This way it listens only for local connections instead of allowing for remote connections. Otherwise MySQL is open for remote connections, and since the default password is blank, it is trivial for anyone on your network to login and drop all your tables :)
