The `local::Connection` struct has the following safety comments:
```rust
// SAFETY: This is safe because we compile sqlite3 w/ SQLITE_THREADSAFE=1
unsafe impl Send for Connection {}
// SAFETY: This is safe because we compile sqlite3 w/ SQLITE_THREADSAFE=1
unsafe impl Sync for Connection {}
```
This is correct with respect to the `*mut ffi::sqlite3` field, but NOT
with respect to the `RefCell<Option<AuthHook>>` field. Heavy load in
a real application using local databases occasionally sees panics due
to concurrent access to this RefCell.

*mut ffi::sqlite3field, but NOT with respect to theRefCell<Option<AuthHook>>field. RefCell is not thread safe. Heavy load in a real application using local databases occasionally sees panics due to concurrent access to this RefCell.I don't have a simple repro right now, but this change eliminated the panics for me. Let me know if you'd like some extra work done like a repro or tests (not sure I'll have time but I will try..)
