Enable general log and slow log of MySQL 5.6 and beyond

For Windows, MySQL configuration file is my.ini, which is located at C:\xampp\mysql\

For Linux, the configuration file is /etc/mysql/my.cnf, which will include other configuration files, such as /etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/mysqld.cnf on Ubuntu.

Add/Un-comment below lines to enable MySQL general log and slow log. Notice that these logging will impact MySQL performance very much, suggest to disable them in normal case.
