Issue #768:

I just downloaded mysql (v8.0.13) and pymysql (v0.9.3) on my Mac (OS v10.14). This newest version of mysql now suggests encrypting passwords with SHA256 by default.

I was trying to connect to a database in mysql using:

import pymysql
con = pymysql.connect('localhost', 'testuser', 'testpw', 'testdb')

And got the error: RuntimeError: cryptography is required for sha256_password or caching_sha2_password

It took me 10 minutes or so on Google, and going to where this error was encoded on this github, to figure out that "cryptography" is just a package I need to pip install.

I've reworded the error message:

RuntimeError: The python package, cryptography, is required for sha256_password or caching_sha2_password. Obtain this package by running `pip install cryptography` and retry.
