Add input validation for custom directory and database name selections

Custom MySQL Data Directory Validation (Line 1313-1335):
- Validates custom path to prevent directory traversal attacks
- Rejects paths containing '../' sequences
- Resolves to absolute path using cd/pwd to prevent symlink attacks
- Prevents confusion and security issues with relative paths
- Example blocked: '../../../etc'

Ticket Number Validation (Line 1641-1650):
- Validates ticket numbers contain only safe alphanumeric characters
- Prevents filename/command injection via ticket number
- Allows only: [a-zA-Z0-9_-]
- Invalid characters result in skipping the ticket number
- Prevents log file corruption or path issues

Database Name Validation (Line 1622-1632):
- Manually entered database names checked for path traversal
- Rejects names containing '/' or '..'
- Prevents directory traversal when constructing database paths
- Array-selected databases already safe (from discovered databases)
- Example blocked: '../../evil_dir'

Impact: Hardens all major user input points against traversal attacks,
filename injection, and command injection. Script is now security-hardened.
