Description:
MySQL 5.6 added a new capability flag, CLIENT_CAN_HANDLE_EXPIRED_PASSWORDS.  This flag is not documented in the appropriate internals documentation:

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/internals/en/capability-flags.html

How to repeat:
See docs page.

Suggested fix:
Document the CLIENT_CAN_HANDLE_EXPIRED_PASSWORDS capability flag.

Venkata also noticed the following are missing:

#define CLIENT_SSL_VERIFY_SERVER_CERT (1UL << 30)
#define CLIENT_REMEMBER_OPTIONS (1UL << 31)
