Bug Description

Activity logs are created when using the Connect dialog to create new custom connections. These log messages, and their activities, are not localized.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Launch Storage Explorer in a language other than English.
  2. Open the Connect dialog and create a new connection, such as with a SAS URL.
  3. Observe the message that appears in the activity log.

Expected Experience

The log message is localized.

Actual Experience

The log message is in English.

Additional Context

These strings are hard-coded in ConnectProvider.ts.

Research direction

Start in ConnectProvider.ts, where the issue identifies hard-coded activity-log strings for custom connections. Reproduce the flow in a non-English language using the Connect dialog and create a connection such as a SAS URL; it is done when the resulting activity message is localized.
