Feature Description

Add a new connection variable to separate the connectionLimit for master and slave

The Problem

Currently the slave and master should have same number of connections.
If we want to have a write intensive application we need to make sure the read is also supporting the same amount of connections.
For RDS unless we modify the number of connections or increase the read replica it is difficult.
If we can separate the Connection limit for slave and master it would be great.
For read replica if we want to increase the connection limit we must replicate the connection details multiple times since for RDS it is pointing to the load balancer instead of host

The Solution

If we can separate the Connection limit for slave and master to different variable in both case we can give the connection limit to what we want and solve the problem for mysql

Considered Alternatives

For slave we can replicate the connection details to suffix our use case but for master we need to make sure the slave is capable of supporting same number of connection as master
