Description
Since version 5.6.6 the MySQL server supports password expiration.
Client applications needs an option to indicate, that they are able to handle expired passwords.
This happens by setting the client_capability CLIENT_CAN_HANDLE_EXPIRED_PASSWORDS. If this capability is set, the server switches to a sandbox mode, in which a new password needs to be defined.
The capability will be set/unset via mysql_optionsv():
mysql_optionsv(mysql, MYSQL_OPT_CAN_HANDLE_EXPIRED_PASSWORDS, 1);
