GitHub Issue: #<ISSUE_NUMBER>

Summary

This pull request primarily refactors the Azure DevOps pipeline for GitHub synchronization and makes minor code style improvements across the C++ and Python codebases. The pipeline changes simplify the sync process and improve conflict handling, while the codebase changes mostly involve formatting for better readability and maintainability.

Azure DevOps Pipeline Improvements:

• Simplified the sync process by checking out the repository directly (checkout: self) and removing redundant clone and remote-add steps. The pipeline now adds the GitHub remote and fetches the main branch in a single step.
• Improved branch creation and sync logic: now creates the sync branch directly from the current state and pulls from GitHub main, handling merge conflicts by always accepting the GitHub version as the source of truth.
• Changed the push target from the previous Azure DevOps remote to the default origin remote, aligning with the new checkout approach.
• Cleaned up unnecessary workingDirectory specifications after refactoring the pipeline steps.

C++ Code Formatting and Readability:

• Reformatted function calls and object constructions in connection.cpp and connection_pool.cpp to improve readability, especially for multi-argument lines. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12]
• Minor code cleanup in ddbc_bindings.cpp, including duplicate attribute resets in FetchAll_wrap (possibly unintentional). [1] [2]

Python Code Formatting:

• Reformatted long lines in test files and utility code for better readability, especially in SQL statements and exception handling. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9]
• Removed an unnecessary blank line in type.py.

These changes collectively improve CI/CD reliability and code maintainability.
