Connect menu should add a -style option to support the CLI flag. #2493

Description

@jboero

We have a cutomer on HCP Boundary that's using LDAP (IPA) and can't enable certs for Boundary. The solution seems to be the -style=sshpass flag in boundary connect though this option is not yet available in the Boundary Desktop app. Currently there is only a "Quick Connect" button where it would be nice to also have an "Advanced Connect" button or a menu for the connect flags in CLI.

It would be great to have a more advanced option for connecting or templating the boundary connect cli command used by Boundary Desktop.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Only manual use of the CLI works for this, but the customer would love to have a seamless experience with Desktop/Electron app.

Explain any additional use-cases
It would be nice to have general templating for the various connect plugins. Many of them have extra options available:
