🎉 New source connector bigcommerce

[jacqueskpoty]

What

As an Air-byte user, I needed to pull data from bigcommerce. Being that air-byte has no bigcommerce source available now, I need to develop a source that supports data pulling from bigcommerce.

How

I built a bigcommerce source with the airbyte python CDK

Thanks for the contribution @jacqueskpoty we're going to review this later today.

@jacqueskpoty this is great! I found one issue that calling the API with invalid_config.json results in exception. Not sure why it did not show up when you tested it. If I change the start_date to a valid date, it works. Something like this:

{
  "start_date": "2020-01-01",
  "store_hash": "STORE_HASH",
  "access_token": "ACCESS_TOKEN"
}

There are a few other minor issues (e.g. unused import). I will merge it as is, and create another PR to fix those issues and publish it.

Thank you for your contribution!
