Passing a redis client to the redis_store Store init param has no effect

[mheguy-stingray]

The redis_store provided to init is overwritten by the class creating its own connection:

    def __init__(
        self,
        ...
        redis_config: RedisConfig,
        redis_store: Optional[Union[Redis, AioRedis]] = None,
        ...
    ):
        super().__init__(
            ...
            redis_store=redis_store,
            ...
        )

        self.redis_store = self._connect_to_redis()

I tried passing my own redit store but I get a "loop already closed" error from asyncio. So clearly there's something about this I don't grok. Closing for now.
