Remove 'autoinit' DB setting
It doesn't make sense to do a load->database() call but not connect to the database. IIRC there was more stuff in CI_DB_driver::initialize() at some point, so that was probably the reason why the setting existed in the first place. However, now it only results in users making invalid bug reports because they don't understand the feature ... Examples during just the past 2 weeks: #3571 #3601 #3607

- DEPRECATED the 'mysql', 'sqlite', 'mssql' and 'pdo/dblib' (also known as 'pdo/mssql' or 'pdo/sybase') drivers.
- Added **dsn** configuration setting for drivers that support DSN strings (PDO, PostgreSQL, Oracle, ODBC, CUBRID).
- Added **schema** configuration setting (defaults to *public*) for drivers that might need it (currently used by PostgreSQL and ODBC).
+ - Added **save_queries** configuration setting to *application/config/database.php* (defaults to ``TRUE``).
+ - Removed **autoinit** configuration setting as it doesn't make sense to instantiate the database class but not connect to the database.
- Added subdrivers support (currently only used by PDO).
- Added an optional database name parameter to ``db_select()``.
- Removed ``protect_identifiers()`` and renamed internal method ``_protect_identifiers()`` to it instead - it was just an alias.
