Use whatever MySQL version is available - 5.7.x should work with latest nightles, or stick to 5.5.x/5.6.x if using a release version.
If your library is based on local paths, too bad - dump it and start again from scratch with network paths. You'll waste too much time trying to fix things, and probably never get it right. If you want to backup/restore your watched states the simplest option is (IMHO) the script in my sig.
The intended replacement for MySQL is UPnP, but that's still some way of yet - probably Kodi 18 at the earliest, so MySQL still has some life in it yet.
