Connected data should support localization with section models

If we use the connect data feature with a section model, currently there is no support to fetch the localized version of that section model.
Using a data model, there is a locale field in the connect data option, but with a section there is not.

It would be best to infer the locale from the current content entry, similar to how inline localization would work. (If we select a locale in the top-left corner of the editor all queried/connected data should reflect that same locale.)
This way content editors would not have to create different targets, making maintenance much easier.

Also, please add the locale option to connect data, when we are using a section model.
