What does this MR do?

This is a 4 steps MR, tackling gitlab-org/gitlab#325156. The backend implementation was already done but given the frontend requirements have changed, there's gonna be some updates from the backend as well.

1 frontend to add the alerts and display logic !59647 (merged)
2 frontend to show the sync button and connect with backend 👈 you are here
3 frontend write specs tbd
4 backend to modify the response from the sync endpoint !59532 (merged)

The feature is behind an Application Setting and it's not released nor documented. To test it locally, see the following steps.
