pma__central_columns
pma__column_info
pma__favorite
pma__history
pma__navigationhiding
pma__pdf_pages
pma__recent
pma__relation
pma__savedsearches
pma__table_coords
pma__table_info
pma__table_uiprefs
pma__tracking
pma__userconfig
pma__usergroups
pma__users
Are these Magento default tables or from an extension?
These table names are not standard Magento tables and are actually part of PhpMyAdmin. It seems to allow extra functionality just for PhpMyAdmin, if you do not use PhpMyAdmin then I would suggest you can drop them without an issue.
These are no default tables.
They may come from a custom extension or another CMS that was installed into the same database using a table prefix.
