Description
Describe the bug
Can't connect to resources in the local network.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Go to 'Add new connection'
- Click on 'Parameters'
- Fill the whole parameters of the server, which is located in local network
[09:15:43] Error connecting to server "192.168.0.195". Details: couldn't get a connection after 15.00 sec [09:20:05] [PgToolsService Initialization] [Verbose]: readAllConnections: 1 connections; excluded recent) [09:20:20] Error connecting to server "192.168.0.195". Details: Connection error: connection timeout expired
Expected behavior
Expect working connection to the database.
Looks like the new MacOS Sequoia security restrictions didn't work as expected.
Despite "Local network" is allowed in Security & Privacy, extension can't work with local network at all.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the failed connection through the extension's Add new connection and Parameters flow on macOS Sequoia, using the supplied 192.168.0.195 details and PgToolsService logs. Check the interaction between the extension and macOS Local Network permission. Done means a local PostgreSQL server can be reached successfully with that permission enabled.
