function Clear-DbaConnectionPool {
    <#
        .SYNOPSIS
            Resets (or empties) the connection pool.
 
        .DESCRIPTION
            This command resets (or empties) the connection pool.
 
            If there are connections in use at the time of the call, they are marked appropriately and will be discarded (instead of being returned to the pool) when Close() is called on them.

        .PARAMETER ComputerName
            Target computer(s). If no computer name is specified, the local computer is targeted.
 
        .PARAMETER Credential
            Alternate credential object to use for accessing the target computer(s).
 
        .PARAMETER EnableException
            By default, when something goes wrong we try to catch it, interpret it and give you a friendly warning message.
            This avoids overwhelming you with "sea of red" exceptions, but is inconvenient because it basically disables advanced scripting.
            Using this switch turns this "nice by default" feature off and enables you to catch exceptions with your own try/catch.
