clarify connection flag

This part is harder to understand when it's further down like this:
https://deploy-preview-3731--docs-getdbt-com.netlify.app/reference/commands/debug?version=1.6
I wonder if it could be moved somewhere else or updated in some other way?

I LOVE this! So much easier to understand and thank you so much for editing it @dbeatty10 ! I didn't realize there was more than two options so this looks perfect 🤩

@mirnawong1 I committed an attempt at splitting the content into three sections (which made the versioning a little easier) -- feel free to revert it if you want: https://deploy-preview-3731--docs-getdbt-com.netlify.app/reference/commands/debug?version=1.6
