fix: make placeholder text visually distinct in the new connection modal

Input fields in the new connection modal were indistinguishable between placeholder hints and
actual configured values. Users reported that hint text like "root" in the username field
appeared as if it were a saved value, causing confusion about what was actually stored in the
connection.

Changes

  • Italic placeholders — added placeholder:italic to all input fields in NewConnectionModal (host,
    port, username, password, database, connection string, SSL paths, SSH fields). Italic styling
    makes it immediately clear that the text is a hint, not a configured value.
  • Translated username placeholder — replaced the hardcoded "root" placeholder in the username
    field with a localized t("newConnection.usernamePlaceholder") key, consistent with how the
    password field already works.
  • i18n — added usernamePlaceholder to all 6 supported locales: en, de, es, fr, it, zh.
