#[sqlx::test] should play nicely with nextest

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Currently running tests annotated with #[sqlx::test] fail with nextest because of how sqlx sets up test dbs, and nextest starts multiple test binaries in parallel to speed up tests

Nextest has real nice reporting features.

Describe the solution you'd like I can use #[sqlx::test] with nextest

Describe alternatives you've considered None, because the test binary that has a #[sqlx::test] in it deletes the db on exit, stomping on the next invocation of the binary by nextest

This sounds like a relatively simple thing to implement—though I say this without having looked at the source code. Is the reason it has been delayed for so long that few people actually care about it, or do the maintainers disapprove of the change?

If it's the latter, it could be put behind a "nextest" feature flag.
