Release name displayed instead of status

[petermakowski]

On machine list, for nodes with a deployed status we currently display a formatted release name instead of the status. https://github.com/canonical/maas-ui/blob/main/src/app/utils/getStatusText.ts#L23

Question for UX

Is this intentional or a mistake and/or should we change this?

@amylily1011 could you take a look at this when you get a chance 🙏

This "was" intentional because you can deploy a machine with different OS releases. When it says "Deployed", the user needs to dig in to a particular machine to see the OS release, so it's a 2 step process instead of one.

Since we allow double column now, we can consider having the STATUS as Deployed and the under status can be OS with a gray sub text Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (similar to the power column).
