(Release) Community Connectors: getSchema query configuration and PATH_USER_PASS authtype

[Data Studio Partner Connectors]

Hi everyone,

We have two new features for Community Connectors:

Advanced Services now supports query configuration for getSchema()
For connectors using advanced services, you can return a query configuration for getSchema calls. Passing the query configuration lets Data Studio automatically determine the schema. Since you do not have to build the schema yourself in the connector code, this makes developing and updating connectors using Advanced Services easier. See the Advanced Services guide for implementation details and examples. To facilitate this feature, in the manifest, `useQueryConfig ` property is now deprecated and is replaced with `advancedServices`.

PATH_USER_PASS is supported as a new AuthType
If your connector needs a URL or path for authentication, that is now supported via the new AuthType: `PATH_USER_PASS`. See Authentication guide for implementation details and examples.

Use google-data-studio Stack Overflow tag if you have questions. Use this issue tracker to request features and report bugs.
