Clarify database type in UI

[dev-hari-prasad]

Schemapad doesn’t clearly indicate which database (e.g., MySQL, PostgreSQL) the schema is targeting. This confuses, especially since types like UUID may not be supported in all databases eg. MySQL. Display the selected DB type prominently in the UI.

where should it be positioned?

[dev-hari-prasad]

We can place the database switcher near the main control bar (top-center, as shown in the attached image) for quick access.

We can add two compact icons (e.g., PostgreSQL and MySQL) that serve as toggles. On hover, show clear tooltips like:

• “Switch to PostgreSQL”
• “Switch to MySQL”

We will avoid the full labels since we have limited space in the topbar already.

---

Additional required changes:

1. We need to add help information when the user lands with an arrow and info about the toggle, just like other help information, when the user opens the app for the first time.

2. We need to add this as a setting in the command bar, e.g., the bar that gets activated when the user hits "/" with two new options:-

• “Switch to PostgreSQL”
• “Switch to MySQL”
