Add Option for File-based Datasets or Manual Queries to Save as a Table in Database W/O Data Flow

When we upload files to OAC that will eventually be saved as a table or create a manual query, we will then have to push them through in a Data Flow in order to save them a table in a database. The data flow will eventually just be a Dataset going straight to a Save Data step.

It seems easier to just have an option at the Dataset level to directly save the file or manual query as a table in a database without the need to create a Data Flow as a Data Flow is mainly for when you need to transform the data however the manual query handles that transformation or often the file-based dataset does not need a data flow.

This would reduce the number of items we need to maintain, run or monitor.
