[Dbix-class] DBD::Multiplex - do NOT use

[J. Shirley]

Right now I'm also looking into setting up multiplexing in DBIC.  I
think that given the problems with DBD::Multiplex it would be prudent
to start from scratch.  I'll chip in on this as much as I can,
although others may have more time to dedicate towards it so I can
either write some test cases and docs, or help out on the less
core-specific features.
