[Feature] Value Diff Copy-Paste and Sorting

[tkrishna-equip]

Describe the feature

After running value diff, I'd like to copy and paste the tabular results to my Google Sheet, so I can annotate and comment with my peers about the differences we're seeing. I would also like to be able to sort (or filter) by Matched % so that I can just copy the columns that are different.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Right now, copy-paste gives us a .png that is cut off by the image on the screen at that moment (doesn't capture the full table). I am manually entering the mismatched columns and their Matched # / percent into a Google Sheet.

Who will this benefit?

Anyone who is collaborating with others to explore differences. We are using this for a big data migration from Hive to Iceberg, and we are running value diff on all our most connected models.

Hi @tkrishna-equip 👋🏼

Thanks for creating the feature request issue. We have discussed it internally and are trying to incorporate it into our roadmap.

May I ask what the high-level purpose of the data copied to the Google sheet? Is it for reviewing model changes? or other purpose?

Thank you! Our Google Sheet is our main source of test case documentation. we are using it to collaborate in real time (team of 3). when we notice a finding, we add comments tagging each other to investigate. we are using this GS for both dbt and python changes that we are tracking as part of this migration
