* Ensure BaseRunner handles nodes without `build_path`
Some nodes, like SourceDefinition nodes, don't have a `build_path` property.
This is problematic because we take in nodes with no type checking, and
assume they have properties sometimes, like `build_path`. This was just
the case in BaseRunner's `_handle_generic_exception` and
`_handle_interal_exception` methods. Thus to stop dbt from crashing when
trying to handle an exception related to a node without a `build_path`,
we added an private method to the BaseRunner class for safely trying
to get `build_path`.
* Use keyword arguments when instantiating `Note` events in freshness.py
Previously we were passing arguments during the `Note` event instantiations
in freshness.py as positional arguments. This would cause not the desired
`Note` event to be emitted, but instead get the message
```
[Note] Don't use positional arguments when constructing logging events
```
which was our fault, not the users'. Additionally, we were passing the
level for the event in the `Note` instantiation when we needed to be
passing it to the `fire_event` method.
* Raise error when `loaded_at_field` is `None` and metadata check isn't possible
Previously if a source freshness check didn't have a `loaded_at_field` and
metadata source freshness wasn't supported by the adapter, then we'd log
a warning message and let the source freshness check continue. This was problematic
because the source freshness check couldn't actually continue and the process
would raise an error in the form
```
type object argument after ** must be a mapping, not NoneType
```
because the `freshness` variable was never getting set. This error wasn't particularly
helpful for any person running into it. So instead of letting that error
happen we now deliberately raise an error with helpful information.
* Add test which ensures bad source freshness checks raise appropriate error
This test directly tests that when a source freshness check doesn't have a
`loaded_at_field` and the adapter in use doesn't support metadata checks,
then the appropriate error message gets raised. That is, it directly tests
the change made in a162d53. This test indirectly tests the changes in both
7ec2f82 and 7b0ff31 as the appropriate error can only be raised because
we've fixed other upstream issues via those commits.
* Add changelog entry for source freshness edgecase fixes
