because this error is retried in the driver and means the connection never succeeded

```
// ErrBadConn should be returned by a driver to signal to the sql
// package that a driver.Conn is in a bad state (such as the server
// having earlier closed the connection) and the sql package should
// retry on a new connection.
//
// To prevent duplicate operations, ErrBadConn should NOT be returned
// if there's a possibility that the database server might have
// performed the operation. Even if the server sends back an error,
// you shouldn't return ErrBadConn.
