FlightSQL support

[ahirner]

What do you use this database for?

I like to connect FlightSQL sources for performance gains with analytics data.

Examples:

• https://github.com/spiceai/spiceai
• https://www.influxdata.com
• https://docs.dremio.com/current/sonar/developing-client-apps/arrow-flight-sql

Are there any existing node clients for this data source?

Not a node dev. FlightSQL implementations are rooted in Rust and C++. Some searching turned up:

• https://github.com/roeap/flight-sql-client-node
• https://github.com/InfluxCommunity/influxdb3-js

Are you interested in contributing this connector?

I'm just making a suggestion

FYI, the Lance DB team has one in beta under active development: https://github.com/lancedb/flight-sql-js-client

BTW, Lance DB is awesome, and it would be great to have as a data source.
