Description

Adds the register flag to auto-register a Store after initialization. The default is False to remain backwards compatible, but the docs have been update to suggest use of the flag over register_store.

Per #547, I considered make Store a singleton when register=True but decided against it the singleton constructor would thrown away initialized Connector instances without closing them properly.

Fixes

• Fixes Add register flag for Store instantiation  #547
