[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] doc/proto.md: Clients MUST not set unknown client flags

[Alex Bligh]

Clients MUST NOT set unknown client flags. Currently this is
permitted (but 'SHOULD NOT' be done), with the result that the
server MUST drop the connection if it happens. This in effect
gives the client an inappropriate way to close the connection.
