The email configuration of Airflow became somwhat hybrid - part
of the configuration is in the config file and part (authentication)
in connection. However there is no dedicated connection type to
use for email, and user got confused - they did not realize they
could use any connection, and this was really not intuitive.

This PR adds email connection type as built-in and updates the
documentation of email configuration to use that connection
type for smtp/sendgrid (and use the aws one for aws email)

Fixes: #18495

The PR is likely OK to be merged with just subset of tests for default Python and Database versions without running the full matrix of tests, because it does not modify the core of Airflow. If the committers decide that the full tests matrix is needed, they will add the label 'full tests needed'. Then you should rebase to the latest main or amend the last commit of the PR, and push it with --force-with-lease.
