Reverse logs display order and scroll hijacking

Adrien Kohlbecker requested to merge ak/logs-order into master

What does this MR do?

Today when logs are loaded they force the browser to scroll to the bottom, because we display logs chronologically.

Reversing the sort order and removing the scroll hijack results in a better experience, paves the way for infinite scrolling to get historical data (#198050 (closed)) and bring us closer to what our competitors are doing.

It also stops us from loosing access to UI elements in the top of the page as soon as the page loads (such as breadcrumbs and alerts)
