          Description

          Admin users when testing Apps can add a "pending apps" plugin repository URL to IGB.

          That URL is:

          https://dev-appstore-5.bioviz.org/obr/pending_releases

          This can be very useful because it allows an admin user to test a new App very easily. They can just add the repository to IGB and try out the new App.

          However, currently if a user visits the above URL in their browser, they will get a "page not found" (404) error.

          This is because we currently only support an endpoint for the "repository.xml" file, accessed via a URL that looks like

          https://dev-appstore-5.bioviz.org/obr/pending_releases/repository.xml

          We should implement a new page/path that will show the user something useful if they visit the repository URL:

          https://dev-appstore-5.bioviz.org/obr/pending_releases

          For this task, implement a "stub page" that contains instructions on how to add the App Store to IGB. See related issue for text.

          Also, include a link to the repository.xml file in the page.

          Note that this task is mainly to create the page. A subsequent Jira user story will cover more in-depth design.

                Code and functionality are both fine! For next step:

                • please rebase on master branch (there have been a few merges since branch was made)
                • submit PR

                Note for testers: Just in case there is any confusion: by "redirect" we mean: "provide a link to repository.xml" not "URL redirection" as in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/URL_redirection
