`MaintenanceDatabase(...)` is required for create & drop database operations about marten HOT 3 CLOSED

@vcaraulean Just updated the docs on this to note that you will need to use Persist Security Info=True in your connection string from your previous issue. That was a change in behavior from the most recent Npgsql.

Why are you doing this btw? Why not just have the named database created as part of your docker compose file?

Thanks for the doc update!

We were upgrading to latest Marten one of our 2-3 projects and found this (set of) breaking behavior(s).

We can create db as part of docker-compose, but what we were (traditionally) using is drop-create flow before running our integration tests. We are expecting an empty db when running any of our tests and that was the way we were doing it. I know that there are other ways of cleaning db, but at that time and as most reliable way of resetting the state is to drop the db.

Still, thinking about it, doc updates are good but might be better to either throw a relevant exception explaining what need to be done or the code should handle that gracefully and pick the credentials and password to be able to execute the drop...

It will be the least surprise for the people who aren't actually reading the docs but are guided by the fluent API compositions.
