Description

google.golang.org/api/transport/grpc provides `DialInsecure`, but it ignores `WithGRPCConnectionPool`.
Can we have `DialInsecurePool`?
or is it safe to use `DialPool` if we set `option.WithoutAuthentication()` and `grpc.WithTransportCredentials(insecure.NewCredentials())` ?

Research direction

Start by reading google.golang.org/api/transport/grpc, especially DialInsecure, DialPool, and their handling of WithGRPCConnectionPool, WithoutAuthentication, and insecure.NewCredentials(). Check whether DialPool can safely provide the requested insecure pooled connection; done means either adding a supported DialInsecurePool path or documenting and validating the safe existing combination.
