There should be an option to automatically fail a future returned by requestConnection after, say, 15 seconds if the pool is still exhausted after the end of the timeout. This would be another option to eliminate the deadlock described in https://github.com/vapor/nio-kit/blob/master/Sources/NIOKit/ConnectionPool.swift; one request would fail after waiting too long, allowing all others to proceed.
