Description:
The syntax diagram of mysql_stmt_bind_named_param() is wrong, it shows 5 parameters with

MYSQL *mysql

as first parameter, while the real function signature has 4 params:

bool STDCALL mysql_stmt_bind_named_param(MYSQL_STMT *stmt, MYSQL_BIND *binds,
                                         unsigned n_params, const char **names);

How to repeat:
Read the doc ;-)

Suggested fix:
Remove "MYSQL *mysql," from the parameter list.

By the way, it would be nice to clarify if the "names" parameter of mysql_stmt_bind_named_param() can be NULL.

Looking at the source code libmysql/libmysql.cc, I think it can.
