pep-249 exception names linked to exception classes of an entirely
different name, preventing SQLAlchemy's own exception wrapping from
wrapping the error appropriately.
The SQLAlchemy dialect in use needs to implement a new
accessor :attr:`.DefaultDialect.dbapi_exception_translation_map`
to support this feature; this is implemented now for the py-postgresql
dialect.

functionality.   Added a new "soft invalidate" feature to the
connection pool at the level of the checked out connection wrapper
as well as the :class:`._ConnectionRecord`.  This works similarly
to a modern pool invalidation in that connections aren't actively
closed, but are recycled only on next checkout; this is essentially
a per-connection version of that feature.  A new event
:class:`.PoolEvents.soft_invalidate` is added to complement it.

- Added new flag
:attr:`.ExceptionContext.invalidate_pool_on_disconnect`.
Allows an error handler within :meth:`.ConnectionEvents.handle_error`
to maintain a "disconnect" condition, but to handle calling invalidate
on individual connections in a specific manner within the event.

- Added new event :class:`.DialectEvents.do_connect`, which allows
interception / replacement of when the :meth:`.Dialect.connect`
hook is called to create a DBAPI connection.  Also added
dialect plugin hooks :meth:`.Dialect.get_dialect_cls` and
:meth:`.Dialect.engine_created` which allow external plugins to
add events to existing dialects using entry points.

levels; :meth:`.Connection.get_isolation_level`,
:attr:`.Connection.default_isolation_level`.
- enhance documentation inter-linkage between new accessors,
existing isolation_level parameters, as well as in
the dialect-level methods which should be fully covered
by Engine/Connection level APIs now.

take effect in all engine connection use cases, including
when user-custom connect routines are used via the
:paramref:`.create_engine.creator` parameter, as well as when
the :class:`.Connection` encounters a connection error on
revalidation.

:meth:`.Inspector.get_temp_view_names`; currently, only the
SQLite dialect supports these methods.    The return of temporary
table and view names has been **removed** from SQLite's version
of :meth:`.Inspector.get_table_names` and
:meth:`.Inspector.get_view_names`; other database backends cannot
support this information (such as MySQL), and the scope of operation
is different in that the tables can be local to a session and
typically aren't supported in remote schemas.
