Connection pool wait queue processing is too greedy

      Running the following snippet will result in a Maximum call stack exceeded error:

      const { MongoClient } = require('mongodb');
      async function main(pid) {
        const client = new MongoClient('mongodb://localhost:27017/', { useNewUrlParser: true, useUnifiedTopology: true });
        await client.connect()
      
        const collection = client.db().collection('test');
        await collection.insertOne({ a: 42 });
        for (let counter = 0; counter < 100000; counter++) {
          collection.insertOne({ a: 42 }, _ => {});
        }
      
        await client.close();
      }
      
      main().catch(console.error);
      

      The logic for processing the wait queue in the ConnectionPool attempts to process wait queue members in a very tight, greedy loop. We must use process.nextTick in order to let the runtime process background tasks, as well as allowing the garbage collector to run.
