Kyle Banker 68af3dbe8f Allow the setting of safe mode globally on the Connection,
DB, and Collection levels. The safe mode setting will
automatically be inherited down the hierarchy Connection ->
DB -> Collection -> (insert, update, remove). This default
can be overridden at any time. Connection#safe, DB#safe, and
Collection#safe will yield the current default value.

#

# to a single, slave node.
