Add connection redaction and connection extension methods
What does this MR do?
This prepares connections for the changes in !40088 (merged).
Specifically it adds:
- connection redaction support, so that we can do redaction of unauthorized results in a field extension.
- connection extension methods so that when we change the
#resolvemethod in the graphql-helpers spec support module and tests suddenly receive connections rather than relations/arrays, they can still work in a somewhat transparent manner.
While this MR exists to support downstream work, the downstream MR is too large to merge as-is, and this section can be easily split out.
