You should probably install the database RPMs before building Slurm:

dnf install mariadb-server mariadb-devel

Also make sure that you have all prerequisites, see my Wiki page 
https://wiki.fysik.dtu.dk/niflheim/Slurm_installation#install-prerequisites

If --without mysql still fails without the database RPMs, that would 
indicate a bug in the spec file.  The spec file works fine on EL8, however.

This check is useful after you have installed slurm-slurmdbd:

rpm -ql slurm-slurmdbd | grep accounting_storage_mysql.so
