Add feature flag and boilerplate code for new Jira Connect app UI

What does this MR do?

As suggested by @leipert, I have extracted the addition of the feature flag and the basic Vue / GitLab UI boilerplate code from the original MR !49202 (closed) to get these changes merged faster.

Since most changes are behind a feature flag, there shouldn't be any big changes to the UI (apart from some UI refinements which are intentional).

Changes in this MR include:

  • Add feature flag new_jira_connect_ui and pass it to the frontend. When ff is enabled, show some new UI elements and hide / remove unused ones.
  • Add boilerplate JS for Vue to allow using translations in templates and using feature flags. Since this is a completely new entrypoint, we need to initialize these separately.
  • Add CSS used by GitLab UI and allow using GitLab UI utilities. Also make small style refinements to follow designs.
