Description:
SHOW GLOBAL STATUS shows status variable Opened_table_definitions, but this isn't documented.

SHOW GLOBAL VARIABLES shows variables rand_seed1 and rand_seed2, but these are also not documented.

How to repeat:
Issue SHOW GLOBAL STATUS/SHOW GLOBAL VARIABLES on a 5.1 server and compare with docs.

Suggested fix:
Add missing variables to docs.

Variables in question appear in 5.1 and 6.0 only.
