### Description The Airflow contributor guidelines explicitly state that we should reduce the usage of the generic `AirflowException` in favor of more specific Python built-ins. I noticed a few places where `AirflowException` is currently being used improperly and should be replaced: - In `airflow/models/connection.py`, invalid connection strings raise `AirflowException`. These should be updated to `ValueError`. - In `airflow/utils/helpers.py`, string length limits and timeouts raise `AirflowException`. These should be updated to `ValueError` and `TimeoutError`. I will be opening a PR for this shortly! ### Use case/motivation Improving codebase quality and adhering to the community's current coding standards by using specific exceptions (like `ValueError` and `TimeoutError`). This makes error handling and debugging clearer for users and contributors, rather than catching a broad `AirflowException`. ### Related issues None ### Are you willing to submit a PR? - [x] Yes I am willing to submit a PR! ### Code of Conduct - [x] I agree to follow this project's [Code of Conduct](https://github.com/apache/airflow/blob/main/CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
