Description
Sorry if I'm blind, but how can I specify the connection with an object and not a string? E.g.
```js
mongoose.connect({
username: 'user123',
password: 'pass123',
host: 'mongodb0.example.com',
port: 1234,
})
```
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reviewing the mongoose.connect entry point and its existing connection configuration handling. Compare the requested object containing username, password, host, and port with the currently supported connection input, then establish whether object configuration should be supported and what completed behavior should be documented or tested.
