 Description   

The current version string that MaxScale sends is "5.5.5-10.2.12 " MAXSCALE_VERSION "-maxscale". This should be updated so that it better reflects the server capabilities that MaxScale supports.

Does this change also make the following documentation note inaccurate, or does this note still apply?:

If the provided string does not start with the number 5, a 5.5.5- prefix will be added to it. This means that a version_string value of MaxScale-Service would result in a 5.5.5-MaxScale-Service being sent to the client.

That note still applies as the MariaDB server itself does it as well.
