Description

Without the admin role, users can only view the external connections that they own.

Allow users to grant SHOWEXTERNALCONNECTION as a [system-level privilege](https://www.cockroachlabs.com/docs/v23.2/security-reference/authorization#supported-privileges) that allows that user to view every external connection, in line with our fine-grained permission strategy.
