The MySQL protocol uses an internal SSL handshake establishment,
which is only happens if both client and server agree to use it.
That is, it works similarly to STARTTLS in SMTP. See here for
details:

https://dev.mysql.com/doc/dev/mysql-server/latest/page_protocol_basic_tls.html

As such, it is not possible to do simple SSL offloading,
something that nginx stream module can do for you, but rather a
protocol-specific implementation is needed.
