Added the following entry to the Connector/J 8.0.14 changelog:

"clearInputStream() returned a NullPointerException when the mysqlSocket, mysqlInput, or mysqlOutput object it tried to retrieve was null. With this fix, an IOExcpetion is thrown instead in the situation. Thanks to Henning Schmiedehausen for contributing to the fix."
