Apps should display cluster resource requirement estimates

This issue is a: [ ] Bug Report [X] Enhancement suggestion [ ] Feature request

When currently looking at the marketplace listing there is no indication of the minimum cluster configuration required or preferred. Take prometheus-operator that is quite demanding in terms of resources. If you just have one node in configuration small then not much more will be able to run.

As a first step we could add an estimation to the description. As a second step we could add some entries to manifest.yml where minimum requirements are stored. Based on these the Civo dashboard could show an estimate of the resource consumption based on installed apps.

In general this will be most helpful to new users. As I think that Civo service also targets newcomers and others that do not breathe k8s concepts such hints might be useful.

Thanks for this, something I've had in mind for a while but isn't tracked, so definitely leaving this open until we get to it.
