Description:
Documentation does not list a notice for read_only flag being changed on the instance. Having a read_only changed notice would be extremely helpful for clients that only want to read the most up to date information from the master. It would also allow proxies to track changes to the current master by observing notices from MySQL.

How to repeat:
Documentation indicates this doesn't exist yet

Suggested fix:
Add a new Global notice type when the server has changed the read_only flag. The notice should contain the new value of the flag. Currently only session variable changes via a Local notice are supported.
