We should consider renaming search externalconnection commands to external connection.

Originally, when external connections have been introduced, their primary use was around bringing external content to Microsoft Search. As the functionality evolved, external content ingested through Graph connector appears in Microsoft Search, ContextIQ and the Microsoft 365 app, and in the near future also in Microsoft 365 Copilot.

I'd like to suggest that we rename the commands to external connection. It will:

1. remove the search association and avoid confusion for folks who'll be looking for it in the context of copilot
2. allow us to accommodate external item in the external namespace, rather than search externalitem

Looking forward to hearing what you think @pnp/cli-for-microsoft-365-maintainers
