A full-featured connection pool, designed for asynchronous connections (using
tokio). Originally based on [r2d2](https://github.com/sfackler/r2d2).
Opening a new database connection every time one is needed is both inefficient
and can lead to resource exhaustion under high traffic conditions. A connection
pool maintains a set of open connections to a database, handing them out for
repeated use.
bb8 is agnostic to the connection type it is managing. Implementors of the
`ManageConnection` trait provide the database-specific logic to create and
check the health of connections.

## Example
Using an imaginary "foodb" database.
```rust
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
let manager = bb8_foodb::FooConnectionManager::new("localhost:1234");
let pool = bb8::Pool::builder()
.max_size(15)
.build(manager)
.await
.unwrap();
for _ in 0..20 {
let pool = pool.clone();
tokio::spawn(async move {
let conn = pool.get().await.unwrap();
// use the connection
// it will be returned to the pool when it falls out of scope.
});
}
}
```
