Description

### What would you like to happen?

Add a button on the RDBMS metadata editor that opens the database connection in the db perspective.
That way you can immediately explorer and query.

Likewise, the inverse should be possible. We should be able to open the connection metadata from the db perspective.

Research direction

Start by locating the RDBMS metadata editor and the db perspective entry points in the Hop GUI. Trace how each represents or opens a database connection, then verify that the editor can open its connection in the db perspective and that the db perspective can open the connection metadata.
