Victor Farazdagi a536a8fdd0 docs(pipelines): add Snowflake materialization examples (#50571)
## I have read the
[CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/supabase/supabase/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md)
file.

YES

## What kind of change does this PR introduce?

Documentation update.

## What is the current behavior?

The Snowflake destination guide describes its append-only change
history, but does not include SQL examples for querying current state or
maintaining a materialized result.

## What is the new behavior?

Add a "Query and materialize current state" section with:

- A query and reusable view that select the latest event per identity
before filtering deletes.
- An incremental dynamic-table example with a configurable freshness
target.
- Guidance on stable keys, permissions, change tracking, refresh costs,
and recovery after table resets or schema changes.
- Links to official Snowflake documentation, including the
streams-and-tasks alternative.

## Summary by CodeRabbit

* **Documentation**
* Expanded Snowflake replication guidance for deriving current state
from append-only change history.
* Added examples for identity selection, `QUALIFY`-based filtering,
reusable views, dynamic tables, streams, and tasks.
* Documented considerations for mutable identity columns, delete
handling, change tracking permissions, refresh settings, target lag, and
DDL effects.
* Clarified that change tracking must be enabled before altering managed
objects.

Maintainers

If you are a maintainer of any tools in the Supabase ecosystem, you can use this site to provide documentation for the tools & libraries that you maintain.

DocSpec

We use documentation specifications which can be used to generate human-readable docs.

  • OpenAPI: for documenting API endpoints.
  • SDKSpec (custom to Supabase): for SDKs and client libraries.
  • ConfigSpec (custom to Supabase): for configuration options.
  • CLISpec (custom to Supabase): for CLI commands and usage.

The benefit of using custom specifications is that we can generate many other types from a strict schema (eg, HTML and manpages). It also means that we can switch to any documentation system we want. On this site we use Next.js, but on Supabase's official website, we use a custom React site and expose only a subset of the available API for each tool.
