What this PR does / why we need it:
The query template for the Snowflake Offline Store is updated to use the recently added ASOF JOIN (https://www.snowflake.com/en/blog/time-series-analytics-asof-join-generally-available/). We have seen a very substantial improvement in feature queries using the new template. Especially, for large feature tables that have many historical entries for certain entity values the performance is even better than using the
ttl
parameter in the current query template.Which issue(s) this PR fixes:
Fixes #4732
