Ecto.Adapters.Connection behaviour

Behaviour for adapters that rely on connections.

In order to use a connection, adapter developers need to implement a single callback in a module: connect/1 defined in this module.

The benefits of implementing this module is that the adapter can then be used with all the different pools provided by Ecto.
