Prevent overriding dbt profile fields with profile args of "type" or …

…"method" (#702)

The issue is described in #696 which was discovered when a user was
creating a ProfileConfig with
`GoogleCloudServiceAccountDictProfileMapping(profile_args={"method":
"service-account"})` which was overriding the dbt profile method:

https://github.com/astronomer/astronomer-cosmos/blob/24aa38e528e299ef51ca6baf32f5a6185887d432/cosmos/profiles/bigquery/service_account_keyfile_dict.py#L21

when the profile args are mapped to the created profile below:


https://github.com/astronomer/astronomer-cosmos/blob/24aa38e528e299ef51ca6baf32f5a6185887d432/cosmos/profiles/bigquery/service_account_keyfile_dict.py#L42-L52

This is not an issue with the profile mapping example above and could
happen with any profile mapping by changing the "type" from
`dbt_profile_type` or "method" (if used) from `dbt_profile_method` in
the class.

The fix in this PR is to not allow args with "type" or "method" that are
different from the class variables in `profile_args`.

I think this is better than logging a warning because if either of those
fields are different the dbt run with the created profile will fail
anyways. This also allows backwards compatibility in the case users have
these already set in their profile args and it matches the class
variables.

Closes #696
