Enable Meltano to use an SSH Tunnel

SSH Tunneling via SSH itself is fairly straight forward as shown here https://www.ssh.com/academy/ssh/tunneling/example
If we wanted something more general, we could write a utility https://docs.meltano.com/concepts/plugins#utilities maybe using something like https://pypi.org/project/sshtunnel/.
The end result could be
meltano run ssh-tunnel tap-postgres target-postgres
Possible outcomes of this issue:
- Create a writeup for how to use SSH Tunnels with Taps/Targets
- Create a SSH Tunnel Utility
- Make an example / show it off of using the SSH Tunnel utility

@aaronsteers This is not about the system DB for a data stack component, but rather any transactional database backing an internal application at a company that they’d use tap-postgres, tap-mysql, tap-mssql etc for. If their Meltano project runs with us (so not hybrid: https://github.com/meltano/dragon/discussions/39), it’ll need to be able to securely connect with that internal database. Many users will not want to allow arbitrary logins from the public internet, so SSH tunnels have been a popular approach.
@tayloramurphy This becomes a priority when we invest in the CDC use case.
