ActiveContext: Start using connection model
What does this MR do and why?
This merge request updates the ActiveContext system to use a single active connection model instead of multiple databases. It introduces a new Connection model with an active scope, replaces the Config.databases with Config.connection_model, and modifies the adapter initialization process. The changes simplify the configuration and make it easier to manage active connections. Additionally, the code has been refactored to work with this new connection model, updating related tests and dependencies accordingly.
