Yuan Teoh 293c1d6889 feat!: update configuration file v2 (#2369)
This PR introduces a significant update to the Toolbox configuration
file format, which is one of the primary **breaking changes** required
for the implementation of the Advanced Control Plane.

# Summary of Changes
The configuration schema has been updated to enforce resource isolation
and facilitate atomic, incremental updates.
* Resource Isolation: Resource definitions are now separated into
individual blocks, using a distinct structure for each resource type
(Source, Tool, Toolset, etc.). This improves readability, management,
and auditing of configuration files.
* Field Name Modification: Internal field names have been modified to
align with declarative methodologies. Specifically, the configuration
now separates kind (general resource type, e.g., Source) from type
(specific implementation, e.g., Postgres).

# User Impact
Existing tools.yaml configuration files are now in an outdated format.
Users must eventually update their files to the new YAML format.

# Mitigation & Compatibility
Backward compatibility is maintained during this transition to ensure no
immediate user action is required for existing files.
* Immediate Backward Compatibility: The source code includes a
pre-processing layer that automatically detects outdated configuration
files (v1 format) and converts them to the new v2 format under the hood.
* [COMING SOON] Migration Support: The new toolbox migrate subcommand
will be introduced to allow users to automatically convert their old
configuration files to the latest format.

# Example
Example for config file v2:
```
kind: sources
name: my-pg-instance
type: cloud-sql-postgres
project: my-project
region: my-region
instance: my-instance
database: my_db
user: my_user
password: my_pass
---
kind: authServices
name: my-google-auth
type: google
clientId: testing-id
---
kind: tools
name: example_tool
type: postgres-sql
source: my-pg-instance
description: some description
statement: SELECT * FROM SQL_STATEMENT;
parameters:
- name: country
  type: string
  description: some description
---
kind: tools
name: example_tool_2
type: postgres-sql
source: my-pg-instance
description: returning the number one
statement: SELECT 1;
---
kind: toolsets
name: example_toolset
tools:
- example_tool
```

## About
A `bigquery-execute-sql` tool executes a SQL statement against BigQuery.
It's compatible with the following sources:
- [bigquery](../../sources/bigquery.md)
`bigquery-execute-sql` accepts the following parameters:
- **`sql`** (required): The GoogleSQL statement to execute.
- **`dry_run`** (optional): If set to `true`, the query is validated but not
run, returning information about the execution instead. Defaults to `false`.
The behavior of this tool is influenced by the `writeMode` setting on its
`bigquery` source:
- **`allowed` (default):** All SQL statements are permitted.
- **`blocked`:** Only `SELECT` statements are allowed. Any other type of
statement (e.g., `INSERT`, `UPDATE`, `CREATE`) will be rejected.
- **`protected`:** This mode enables session-based execution. `SELECT`
statements can be used on all tables, while write operations are allowed only
for the session's temporary dataset (e.g., `CREATE TEMP TABLE ...`). This
prevents modifications to permanent datasets while allowing stateful,
multi-step operations within a secure session.
The tool's behavior is influenced by the `allowedDatasets` restriction on the
`bigquery` source. Similar to `writeMode`, this setting provides an additional
layer of security by controlling which datasets can be accessed:
- **Without `allowedDatasets` restriction:** The tool can execute any valid
GoogleSQL query.
- **With `allowedDatasets` restriction:** Before execution, the tool performs a
dry run to analyze the query.
It will reject the query if it attempts to access any table outside the
allowed `datasets` list. To enforce this restriction, the following operations
are also disallowed:
- **Dataset-level operations** (e.g., `CREATE SCHEMA`, `ALTER SCHEMA`).
- **Unanalyzable operations** where the accessed tables cannot be determined
statically (e.g., `EXECUTE IMMEDIATE`, `CREATE PROCEDURE`, `CALL`).
> **Note:** This tool is intended for developer assistant workflows with
> human-in-the-loop and shouldn't be used for production agents.
## Example
```yaml
kind: tools
name: execute_sql_tool
type: bigquery-execute-sql
source: my-bigquery-source
description: Use this tool to execute sql statement.
```
