Description

This is an issue when using a PromiseConnection which wraps a PoolConnection. For example:

const {createPool} = require('mysql2/promise');
const pool = await createPool(options);
const connection = await pool.getConnection();
connection.destroy();

destroy only ever proxies Connection.prototype.destroy, not PoolConnection.prototype.destroy, so the connection isn't removed from the pool.
