Description
Describe the solution you'd like
On right clicking a database it should be possible to copy a URL to connect to it, to the clipboard.
There a are different formats for the format, dj_database_url would cover many django users
https://pypi.org/project/dj-database-url/
JDBC
Would cover java users.
Having some of the popular formats in a right click submenu would make life easier for developers on these platforms.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Currently this is a manual process, and as it's not done very often - involves going and looking at the docs or modifying an existing URL

Research direction
Start by reviewing the database right-click menu and how connection details are currently exposed. Compare the requested PostgreSQL URL formats, including dj_database_url and JDBC, and define the submenu options and clipboard result before implementation. Done means a database context menu can copy the selected supported URL format.
