New Version of Apache::DBI which uses 'reauthenticate' instead of caching all connections

[Jeff Horn <je...@intralect.com>]

I've made some changes which allow this module to be used in situations where scripts mess with common and database handle attributes.  Each connection can be made and get defaults for such attributes modulo any changes that are made in the connect call.

This module is very useful in situations where a web application wishes to use database security.  In this situation, the current Apache::DBI on CPAN quickly runs into scaling problems as it attempts to maintain many, many connections.

I would like input on whether people think it would be better to distribute this in the future as Apache::DBIReauth or somehow meld this with the existing Apache::DBI with some configuration options as to which kind of caching to use.

Please let me know what you think!
