Warn about persistent connection "feature" in Django 4.0+

Persistent database connections do not work in Django 4.0+ when running under ASGI; this caused a "too many database connections" problem that was difficult for me to find any information on.

Since the ticket (https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/33497) is marked as a feature and has been open for almost 2 years, I think it would be worth calling this scenario out in the documentation for anyone else who might hit it.
