Base class for a Connection and DbCommand cache.

Implementations control the lifecycle via lifecycle methods, or may simple obtain new resources and close new resources every time.

This is not a pool - a cache is associated with one client class and that class is expected to use cache methods in well-defined order of get, done-with and destroy.

The following tables list the members exposed by the ConnectionCache type.
