SL x snowflake guide (#5242)

this pr enhances the existing SL guide by adding more detailed steps for
users. add'l steps mirror existing quickstars and include:
- set up new warehouse
- load data to warehouse
- create cloud acct
- build project
- create semantic models
-define metrics.
...etc.

this is in collaboration with the training team. [notion draft
