Added documentation for Session safety in multi-process environments
Description
This PR adds comprehensive documentation warning users about the risks of using
Sessionobjects in multi-process environments wherefork()is used, particularly with frameworks like Celery.Problem
When a Session is created before forking, the underlying connection pool is shared across processes, leading to requests and responses being mixed up between processes. This causes dangerous and hard-to-debug issues.
