Changes in:
- `create_sql_agent` function so that user can easily add custom tools
as complement for the toolkit.
- updating **sql use case** notebook to showcase 2 examples of extra
tools.
Motivation for these changes is having the possibility of including
domain expert knowledge to the agent, which improves accuracy and
reduces time/tokens.

"### Extending the SQL Toolkit\n",
"\n",
"Although the out-of-the-box SQL Toolkit contains the necessary tools to start working on a database, it is often the case that some extra tools may be useful for extending the agent's capabilities. This is particularly useful when trying to use **domain specific knowledge** in the solution, in order to improve its overall performance.\n",
"\n",
"Some examples include:\n",
"\n",
"- Including dynamic few shot examples\n",
"- Finding misspellings in proper nouns to use as column filters\n",
"\n",
"We can create separate tools which tackle these specific use cases and include them as a complement to the standard SQL Toolkit. Let's see how to include these two custom tools.\n",
"\n",
"#### Including dynamic few-shot examples\n",
"\n",
"In order to include dynamic few-shot examples, we need a custom **Retriever Tool** that handles the vector database in order to retrieve the examples that are semantically similar to the user’s question.\n",

"Let's start by creating a dictionary with some examples: "

"In order to filter columns that contain proper nouns such as addresses, song names or artists, we first need to double-check the spelling in order to filter the data correctly. \n",

"We can achieve this by creating a vector store using all the distinct proper nouns that exist in the database.

In this way, the agent can make sure it understands which entity the user is referring to before building the target query.\n",
