Description

As CheckConstraints are not supported by versions of MySQL less than 8.0.16, can we update this page ​https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.2/ref/models/constraints/ to show a warning to explain as much.

I was warned by the lovey Django System Check:
"MySQL does not support check constraints. HINT: A constraint won't be created. Silence this warning if you don't care about it."

Can we do the same for the docs?
I've yet to contribute to Django, I'd be happy for this to be my first attempt

Thanks for this ticket, however, as you already mentioned we have a system check for using CheckConstraint's when it's not supported by a database. I don't see much value in documenting this.
