Add metadata component to Package details page

What does this MR do?

This MR adds a new metadata component in the package details UI

To smoothly change the UI (to accomplish this#227582) iteratively without disturbing the users this work is gated behind a feature flag and split in several MRs

Change Mr
Add feature flag and new History Component !38045 (merged)
Add additional metadata component 👉🏻 You are here
Move the installation commands to the center column, remove the feature flag and clean up old code TBD

As an experimental process, I would like to appoint a single reviewer and a single maintainer for all of the MRs, so that everyone has all the context.

How to test

🚀 Buckle up! 🚀

To test this we will need to do some groundwork, luckily we can leverage the rails console for all of it:

  1. rails c
  2. p = Project.find(1)
  3. FactoryBot.create(:npm_package, :with_build, project: p)
  4. FactoryBot.create(:conan_package, project: p)
  5. FactoryBot.create(:nuget_package, :with_metadatum, project: p)
  6. FactoryBot.create(:maven_package, project: p)
  7. Feature.enable(:packages_details_one_column, p)

After this, the feature will be enabled on the project with id 1 ( or any other selected on the second command ) and a npm, conan, nuget and maveng package will be created.

Note that the packages created with FactoryBot have fake data inside that may not match with the 'real' one
