Description:
Conn/C++ provides no way of accessing http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/mysql-options4.html
Specifically, there\'s no way to set the MYSQL_OPT_CONNECT_ATTR_ADD attribute for the connection, so any program that uses Conn/C++ will just show up as libmysqlclient

How to repeat:
n/a

Suggested fix:
Either expose mysql_options4 in some way or provide a general method to set connection attributes.

Noted in 1.1.4 changelog.

Connector/C++ now supports the MYSQL_OPT_CONNECT_ATTR_ADD option for
mysql_options4(). The argument should be a std::map.
