Deploy freeze: edit a freeze period via UI

Problem to solve

#24295 (closed) introduces Deployment Freezes on a project level. This issue is a follow up of the MVC, and intends to allow users to edit/manage existing freeze periods using GitLab's ui (project settings).

Intended users

• Devon (DevOps Engineer)
• Rachel (Release Manager)

Further details

Proposal

As a DevOps Engineer/Release Manager, I want to edit deployment freezes I specified, so that I can keep my information up to date.

• On project settings > ci/cd > deployment freezes: once the section is expanded, the user will see a list of existing deploy freezes, if applicable.
• User should have an option to Edit an existing deploy freeze. The option is available depending on user permission.
  • When editing a deploy freeze, the modal should popup with the form pre-filled.
  • User should be able to update the information. Form validation should apply.
  • The primary modal button should read Save changes.
  • Clicking the Cancel button should close the modal. No information is stored or updated.
  • Clicking the Save changes button should close the modal and the new information about the deployment freeze should be displayed on the page.
