Description
# Summary
Add support for custom connection string parameters in PostgreSQL connection URL for Argo Workflows, specifically to allow setting `binary_parameters=yes`. Currently, the connection string configuration doesn't support adding custom parameters, which causes issues when using PgBouncer with PostgreSQL for archiving and offloading workflows.
## Use Cases
When would you use this?
The modification is particularly important for production environments where PgBouncer is commonly used as a standard practice for PostgreSQL connection pooling and management. Or any other custom use case people may have.

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating Argo Workflows' PostgreSQL connection URL configuration and the archive/offloading connection setup; determine how custom parameters such as binary_parameters=yes can be passed through. Done means custom PostgreSQL parameters work with PgBouncer without breaking existing connection configuration.
