Description:
As of MySQL 5.7.11, --ssl-verify-server-cert option is deprecated and switched to a new option --ssl-mode. However, MASTER_SSL_VERIFY_SERVER_CERT still remains in CHANGE MASTER TO command. IMHO, CHANGE MASTER TO command also follow same convension.

How to repeat:
n/a

Suggested fix:
MASTER_SSL_MODE is preferable for new option name in CHANGE MASTER TO command. The option must accept same arguments as --ssl-mode option: PREFERRED, DISABLED, REQUIRED, VERIFY_CA, and VERIFY_IDENTITY.
