Description

Feature Description

Currently all the connector configuration is present in the development.toml file. But this configuration is not developer specific, this remains the same whoever uses it, this configuration is based on the application and it should not be tweaked by the developer or else it would cause some features to not work.

Possible Implementation

Move the configuration to a separate file and if possible in a better format ( the layout and keys can be changed as per the needs, but file format has to be TOML only ) so that the application can read it easily. After making this change, all the places where this config is read has to be changed to read from a single file.

Research direction
Examine the `development.toml` file and identify which keys pertain to connector configuration. Search the entire Rust codebase for references to these keys to understand where the configuration is read. Consider the appropriate location for the new file (e.g., `config/connectors.toml`). Ensure all read points are updated to use the new file, and verify that the application builds and runs correctly. Check the issue comments for any progress or additional context from the assignee.
