[Feature] Support dbt Fusion execution engine

[yu-iskw]

Describe the feature

dbt Labs has released dbt Fusion, a new Rust-based execution engine that replaces dbt Core's Python execution engine to provide significant performance improvements (up to 30x faster parsing) and native SQL understanding.

I would like to request that Recce adds support for dbt Fusion in addition to dbt Core.

This support would likely entail:

1. Artifact Compatibility: Ensuring Recce can correctly parse and utilize artifacts (manifest.json, catalog.json, etc.) generated by dbt Fusion, handling any potential schema differences.
2. CLI Support: Supporting the dbtf CLI or the Fusion-enabled dbt CLI for invoking dbt commands if Recce runs them internally.
3. Project Loading: Verifying that Recce can successfully load projects configured for Fusion (which may have stricter validation or different configuration flags).

Describe alternatives you've considered

Who will this benefit?

This will benefit:

• Large dbt teams: Teams with massive projects who are adopting Fusion to reduce parse/compile times.
• CI/CD Pipelines: Organizations looking to speed up their CI checks; using Fusion for the run and Recce for the check would be the ideal fast-path.
• Early Adopters: Users utilizing the dbt VS Code extension and Fusion engine for local development.

Hi @yu-iskw

Yes! Supporting dbt Fusion is in our roadmap.
May I ask how your team runs dbt Fusion? On dbt Cloud or another platform?
