Support a jump server for cases when Redshift is behind a firewall and not exposed to the internet

Hi @aroder , thanks for interest in contributing.

I think that:

1. Setting up SSH / VPN / networking seems out of scope for a particular target and more like something that a bash script should be doing. A large number of taps and targets (pretty much and db or API that can be run on-prem) could use SSH tunneling.
2. If we were to add it, I would be more inclined to add it to target-postgres's target_tools.py which is used by target-redshift and target-snowflake.

@awm33 is there any movement here or anything to be done here?

I suggest adding support for redshift's data api which is vastly superior than tunneling anyway
