DEVREL-1193 simple config should allow for skipping of EIDs

[nazreen]

Problem

• pre-Simple Config, create-lz-oapp already supported the --skip-connections-from-eids param
• generateConnectionsConfig fails when pathways include chains without DVN metadata (e.g., Starknet).
• The --skip-connections-from-eids CLI flag only filters after config loading.
• DVN lookups still fail during config generation before filtering can occur.

Changes

• Added skipFromEids parameter to generateConnectionsConfig and translatePathwayToConfig.
• Located in packages/metadata-tools/src/config-metadata.ts.
• Filters pathways before DVN/executor lookups, skipping chains that lack metadata.
• Added 3 tests in packages/metadata-tools/test/config-metadata.test.ts.
