Resolve "Move dependency scanning reports logic for the Merge Request widget to the backend - frontend part"

What does this MR do?

This moves the reports logic from the frontend to the backend for dependency scanning reports in on an MR. It's behind the feature flag dependencyScanningMergeRequestReportApi which is disabled currently.

Once the feature flag is enabled, the user will see no changes. We generate the same report, just in the backend instead of the frontend. This should improve performance, load times, and code reuse.

If you need it, here's an explainer video (just replace all mentions of container scanning with dependency scanning): https://youtu.be/WzgsWDcvmes

This is basically the same MR as !15226 (merged) just for a different report type.

Does this MR meet the acceptance criteria?
