Greptile Summary

• Adds optional connection_error_message field to BaseConfig class enabling custom connection error messages in production mode
• Modifies ConnectionToaster.add_hooks() method to display custom error messages from config in production while preserving technical details in development mode

Important Files Changed

Filename	Overview
reflex/config.py	Added nullable connection_error_message field to BaseConfig class for customizable connection error messaging
reflex/components/core/banner.py	Updated toast notification logic to use custom error messages in production mode while preserving debug info in development

Confidence Score: 4/5

• This PR is safe to merge with minor concerns about edge case handling in production mode
• Score reflects good implementation of dev/prod mode separation but lowered due to potential empty string issue in loading_message fallback and lack of tests for the new feature
• Pay close attention to reflex/components/core/banner.py for the empty string fallback in loading_message logic

   logic: Setting loading_message to empty string in production with custom error message may result in a blank toast notification, which could confuse users. Should the loading_message use the custom error message instead of an empty string when config.connection_error_message is set?
