Production guardrails for developers

[rhauch]

Goals

1. Help developers prevent unintentionally changing production systems

Non-Goals

1. Does not rely upon RBAC or ACL of the connected clusters

Background

As a developer, I have access to production systems, but I'm not sure which operations within the extension might change those production systems, and want the extension to help protect me from unintentionally modifying production systems.

Proposal

Allow developers to mark a connection to allow read-only operations. Then extension would hide/disable all write or modifying operations on resources (clusters, topics, schemas, etc.) accessible with that connection.
