fix(cli-repl): do not wait for connectionInfo in quiet non-REPL mode M…

…ONGOSH-1765 (#1962)

Do not wait for `fetchConnectionInfo()` and similar methods when they are
not needed. This hopefully improves startup performance in real-world
scenarios a bit further.

In order to achieve this:
- Implement a cache/lazy-loading ability for the connection info
  in the shell-api `ShellInstanceState` class. We now only fetch
  connection info here if requested, and only refresh it
  if the service provider instance changed (and not just the
  database itself).
- Adjust usage of the `fetchConnectionInfo()` method so that we
  only wait for its result if we need it immediately.

This also adds type safety by removing the `any` typing for
`connectionInfo` in `ShellInstanceState`. I admittedly thought
that this would be a quick fix, but unfortunately (as seen in the
commit diff), this spiraled a bit into different packages and tests
as a larger change to align the typings for this object.
