Trigger an Airflow DAG run

Starts a DAG run via the Airflow REST API. Can wait until the run reaches success or failed using 1s polling and a 60m timeout by default; throws if the timeout is exceeded. If no body is provided, sends a default conf with the Kestra source, flow, namespace, task, and execution identifiers.
