[Feature]: Support connections.toml

Company Name

Colorado Behavioral Health Administration

Use Cases or Problem Statement

My team uses various Snowflake tools:

• The Terraform provider
• The Python Connector, directly and via schemachange and the Snowflake CLI
• The VSCode extension

At the moment, we need to configure each independently, and thus need to keep all those configurations in sync.

Proposal

It would be nice to have all the configuration across the various tools in one place. The Go Snowflake Driver seems to support connections.toml - see "Connection Config" in the package documentation. Looking for the Terraform provider to add support for / explain how to use that config file.

How much impact is this issue causing?

Low
