Add "what's new" tile to launcher

[salonee13]

Fixes #2795

What changes were proposed in this pull request?

Added a tile in launcher called 'What's new'. It is connected to a link that takes you to the releases page and shows you the latest version of Elyra you have installed.

How was this pull request tested?

I ran make watch and then opened another terminal and ran jupyterlab --watch and was able to edit and view the changes to the launcher to check and see if the tile was there and worked by opening the correct link.

This looks great, thanks for the contribution!

One suggestion I have is that I think it'd be better if the icon was more specific to releases.

• This is where we've gotten icons in the past: https://carbondesignsystem.com/guidelines/icons/library/ - looks like they have a good icon if you search "release".
• You'll need to add the svg file for the icon here: https://github.com/elyra-ai/elyra/tree/main/packages/ui-components/style/icons
• Then you'll need to import it in this file (you can use the other icon imports as an example): https://github.com/elyra-ai/elyra/blob/main/packages/ui-components/src/icons.tsx

Let me know if you need any help with that!

Remember to also update the release script as indicated in this comment. As is the link would always open to the 'latest' release, which isn't necessarily the release the user has installed.

Tile displays version now as well and release script changes are in

[ptitzler]

The tool tip display seems to randomly switch back and forth between displaying the internal label and the caption ...

I'm seeing this behavior pretty consistently. It doesn't seem to happen for other tiles

[akchinSTC]

Test failure and tooltip issue have been resolved. Thx @karlaspuldaro
