* a connection to "Foo.sqlite" and "foo.sqlite" will CORRUPT YOUR DATABASE.
*
* Opening connections from more than one thread to the same database will
* also CORRUPT YOUR DATABASE. All connections share the same sqlite cache,
* and the cache is not threadsafe.
*
* The connection object returned by this function is not threadsafe. You must
* use it only from the thread you created it from.

* @param aDatabaseFile a nsIFile of the database to open.

* @throws NS_ERROR_FAILURE if any operation fails while opening
