Add additional cloud provider driver "helper" functions #878

@atheriel

Description

@atheriel

The odbc::databricks() and odbc::snowflake() functions have been pretty successful, because we've been able to stuff a lot of unpleasant auth and configuration details in there that users would previously have to copy around manually.

There are several other obvious candidates for "cloud provider helper functions", too:

  • redshift() and rds() helpers that handle AWS IAM credentials and maybe integrate with the paws package; and
  • A sqlserver() helper that picks up on Azure credentials.

I think we should try to build these out over time.
