Subject: [PATCH] feat(core): Add Sync button for DataSource actions

Introduces a sync button in the DataSource table for improved user
interaction. Enables users to trigger sync actions directly from the
table, with context-sensitive availability based on permissions and
record status.

Closes #19547
