Description

would be great if postico support to read credentials from `~/.pgpass`

Research direction

Start with the PostgreSQL .pgpass documentation linked in the issue and locate Postico's connection-credential handling. Determine how ~/.pgpass entries should be matched and used when connecting, then verify that Postico can authenticate using credentials from that file.
