Thank you for the bug report and contribution.

I also see these packets being used while I don't use mysql_list_fields() in my code. This is when I used MySQL Client 8.0.32 for example.

So I think either this should be in the docs or the client should not use it.

Especially if the docs state that the clients are good examples for how to write a client program as stated on https://dev.mysql.com/doc/c-api/8.0/en/c-api-example-programs.html
