This originated from https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost/issues/15249.
However, the original idea was discarded https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost/issues/15249#issuecomment-709713065
as being too complicated to implement. Then I had another
idea to implement it just for session objects.
My thinking was that since every single request allocates a new
session struct, it would be good to use a sync.Pool for that.
However, 4 years later, now we know that the primary bottleneck
in app performance comes from websocket event marshalling.
Therefore, while it would be good to do this, it is difficult
to do it correctly (as shown by the numerous racy tests).
Hence, reverting this.
```release-note
NONE
```
* add tests
* pass userID to the function instead of the user object.
* remove concurrent login simulation

It was a good decision in hindsight to keep the public module as 0.x
because this would have been a breaking change again.
