Description
### Is this your first time submitting a feature request?
- [x] I have read the [expectations for open source contributors](https://docs.getdbt.com/docs/contributing/oss-expectations)
- [x] I have searched the existing issues, and I could not find an existing issue for this feature
- [x] I am requesting a straightforward extension of existing dbt functionality, rather than a Big Idea better suited to a discussion
### Describe the feature
Enable SSO authentication to Snowflake using OAuth token generated from DefaultAzureCredential.
It is especially useful when testing models locally using dbt-core. If you are logged in using azure-cli, DefaultAzureCredential can retrieve oauth token automatically.
dbt-core app deploy in AKS with workload identity can leverage this feature.
### Describe alternatives you've considered
snowflake python connector also supports oauth but it's approach requires more configuration compared to using token from DefaultAzureCredential.
### Who will this benefit?
Team using dbt-core app deployed in Azure Kubernetes Server
### Are you interested in contributing this feature?
