### Connect to Database via Key-Value Pairs (SourcePawn)

Source: https://sm.alliedmods.net/new-api/dbi/__raw

Connects to a database using key-value pairs, which should correspond to `databases.cfg` entries. This method is generally discouraged in favor of using `databases.cfg` directly.

```SourcePawn
// Connects to a database using key value pairs containing the database info.
// The key/value pairs should match what would be in databases.cfg.
//
// I.e. "driver" should be "default" or a driver name (or omitted for 
// the default).  For SQLite, only the "database" parameter is needed in addition.
// For drivers which require external connections, more of the parameters may be 
// needed.
//
// In general it is discouraged to use this function.  Connections should go through 
// databases.cfg for greatest flexibility on behalf of users.
