Fix mysql_setpermission hostname logic

Changes:
- Don't include port in connection parameters with 'localhost' hostname

More info:
The hostname, if not specified or specified as '' or 'localhost', will default
to a MySQL server running on the local machine using the default for the UNIX socket.
To connect to a MySQL server on the local machine via TCP, you must specify the
loopback IP address (127.0.0.1) as the host.
