You guys updated how you handle connections:

https://github.com/mongodb/mongo-go-driver/commit/32946b1f8b9412a6a94e68ff789575327bb257cf

but the documentation here:

https://godoc.org/github.com/mongodb/mongo-go-driver/mongo

and here:

https://github.com/mongodb/mongo-go-driver

is out of date.

It now needs to look something like something shown below (tested/compiles). Please update your docs or you will have a lot of confused people in the morning. I'll also update this SO: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/54778520/mongo-go-driver-failing-to-connect. Thanks!
