MariaDB Connector/C++ 1.1.7 is a Stable (GA) release.

Notable changes in this release include:

- Introduced restrictedAuth connection option restricting connector in authentication plugins it may use. By using this option, applications can define a comma-separated list of plugins it is allowed to use. That may not allow server to silently downgrade the authentication method.

- Fixes for various issues
