Add the detailed view for pods and services

What does this MR do and why?

This MR adds a drawer with the resource details to the Environment details page. It uses the same components as on the Kubernetes dashboard. With this MR we update the Kubernetes overview on the Environment page to be similar to the Kubernetes dashboard. With this change we can reuse some components of the dashboard:

  • graphql fragments
  • resolver helpers
  • typedefs
  • mock data for tests

The MR also removes the rowClickable logic of the workload_table as it was added temporarily until we are ready to add the details drawer.

As we now have similar logic in resolvers for the pods and services don't the Environment page and Kubernetes dashboard, we want to create some shared resolvers and helpers in a separate MR.

How to set up and validate locally

Prerequisites:

  1. Visit the Project -> Operate -> Environments

  2. Create/Edit an environment using the UI

  3. Visit the Project -> Infrastructure -> Kubernetes clusters page and create an agent following the instructions from the modal.

    • Select the "Connect a cluster" button
    • The modal should pop up
    • In the modal select "Select an agent or enter a name to create new"
    • You probably won't have any configured agents to show up in the list, create a new one by typing the name of your choice
    • The button should appear at the bottom of the list saying "Create agent: <your-agent-name>"
    • Select the button and click "Register" in the next view.
    • Save the token to use it in the next point.
  4. Add the following configuration inside your project in .gitlab/agents/<your-agent-name>/config.yaml for the user_access agent:

    user_access:
      access_as: 
        agent: {}
      projects:
      - id: <your-group>/<your-project-to-share-agent-with>
  5. Note that the shared agents should be connected to the cluster in order to appear in the list. Please follow points 3-8 from the guide and then the Deploy the GitLab Agent (agentk) with k3d section to create a local cluster and connect your agent with the cluster.

  6. Select an agent from the dropdown in the Environments settings page and save the change.

  7. Visit the Environments page and visit the environment details page for the environment that has an associated agent.

  8. Click on a table row in the pods and services tabs to trigger the drawer with the resource details.
