I also could not install modules mysqlclient, mysql or mariadb... I'm sorry to suggest here only a workaround: installing "PyMySQL", a pure Python MySql client. This way resolves some issues like lack of gcc on Synology NAS, missing pip dependencies, etc... My solution/workaround:

/volume1/@appstore/py3k/usr/local/bin/pip3 install pymysql

For my usage, functions were the same so I just had to change the import:

>>> import pymysql  # import pure Python SQL client
>>> conn = pymysql.connect(database="usersdb", user="web", port=3307)

Ok, I solved my problem. At the beginning I thought that the issue on install mysqlclient was due to the fact that PIP had some problems. I was wrong. Pip Works well.

Mysqlclient just wont install on Synology.

I then try to install another Mysql Connector, i tried PyMySQL and it install easy an works fine. Probably i was able to install PyMySQL because it (contains a pure-Python MySQL client library, based on PEP 249.)
