I should’ve `inspect`ed more

Basically, the tests end up opening multiple connections anyway. For `TestRepo`:

```elixir
{:connect,
 [
   pool_index: 1,
   repo: Ecto.Integration.PoolRepo,
   telemetry_prefix: [:ecto, :integration, :pool_repo],
   otp_app: :ecto,
   timeout: 15000,
   adapter: Sqelect,
   database: "/tmp/test_repo.db",
   pool_size: 10,
   migration_lock: nil,
   pool_size: 1
 ]}
{:connect,
 [
   pool_index: 1,
   repo: Ecto.Integration.TestRepo,
   telemetry_prefix: [:ecto, :integration, :test_repo],
   otp_app: :ecto,
   timeout: 15000,
   adapter: Sqelect,
   database: "/tmp/test_repo.db",
   migration_lock: nil,
   pool_size: 1
 ]}
{:connect,
 [
   pool_index: 6,
   repo: Ecto.Integration.PoolRepo,
   telemetry_prefix: [:ecto, :integration, :pool_repo],
   otp_app: :ecto,
   timeout: 15000,
   adapter: Sqelect,
   database: "/tmp/test_repo.db",
   pool_size: 10,
   migration_lock: nil,
   pool_size: 1
 ]}
...

```

For a total of 11 connections. And in my code I end up starting 11 sqlite gen servers which … is not ideal 🙂
