Description:
The documentation at e.g. http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/connector-net-connection-options.html documents 3 synonymous options; 

"Reset Pooled Connections", "ResetPooledConnections", and "ResetConnections".

Those options does not exists (I believe they were removed somewhere back in 1.0.x).

How to repeat:
Try to open a connection with the mysql connector/net where the connection string includes one of the "Reset Pooled Connections", "ResetPooledConnections", and "ResetConnections" options - an exception stating "Keyword not supported.
Parameter name: reset pooled connections" will occur.

Suggested fix:
Remove the documentation for the non existant "Reset Pooled Connections", "ResetPooledConnections", and "ResetConnections". connection string options.
and  document the "Connection Reset" option - as that seem to provide a somewhat similar feature.
