Description

The pipeline indexing strategy needs to have access to a MongoDatabase object to register a custom codec to deserialize the responses from Mongo. Previously we were passing a MongoConnection object which contained a reference to MongoDatabase. But the indexing job does not need any other fields from MongoConnection other than MongoDatabase. But requiring MongoConnection makes it harder for users of Oak to call this API.

We can simplify the logic by requiring only a MongoConnection.
