Port new resource-listing “cards” UI for use to display datasets on /groups and /community

[genehack]

Work breakdown:

• update useDataFetch code to pull groups data when given appropriate arguments
• update useDataFetch code to transform groups data into expected shape
• update /groups page to use ResourceList component
• convert narratives into simple list as suggested
• add link from group name to group page
• add custom logos when we have them
  • it doesn't appear we have these in any centralized way
  • is this worth doing per-group fetch() calls during the card render to hit the getSourceInfo endpoint to retrieve the avatar field and inject it over the default image? (feels expensive.)
  • "Then maybe best to extend metaSources to return group logos in addition to datasets/narratives" (context)
  • The way group logos are stored is really not conducive to accessing them in this way. I think what I'm going to do instead is repress the logo for anything that isn't nextstrain
• add resource list to single-group pages
  • should be mostly lift and shift from /groups
• add resource list to /community
• add last-modified dates to group datasets
  • maybe/probably out of scope for this issue and better handled on its own?

FYI I'm planning to make some edits to static-site/src/components/ListResources/Showcase.jsx proposed in #849 (comment).

We may run into conflicts here, but I suspect that as long as you use the Showcase component just like this in the other pages, it should be trivial to resolve.

<Showcase cards={showcaseCards} setSelectedFilterOptions={setSelectedFilterOptions}/>

@genehack happy to talk through any design questions you have here (as they arise). Perhaps a couple of points as to what I was thinking:

• The current <ListResources> component gets its data from a hardcoded API call. The current groups/community pages uses the charon/getAvailable API. My suggestion is to allow the <ListResources> component to use those charon/getAvailable APIs, either by expanding useDataFetch or by injecting custom data fetch functions to the component.
• Narratives aren't currently displayed in <ListResources>. They totally can be, but lots of UI decisions there. As an intermediate we could replace the existing narrative table with a simple HTML list, which I think would be just fine.

Thanks, I was gonna use our 1:1 time today to get a bootstrapping brain dump from you on this. 😁

Noting that Heroku deployment is currently blocked on making eslint aware of TypeScript.

Noting that Heroku deployment is currently blocked on #905.

I mean, we could just fix the linting errors highlighted by the failing build step (which you can run locally as well), which'll let this PR be built as a Heroku review app and even merged. Not a great long term state, but doesn't seem like something that should block this work.

One of the linting errors is ESLint claiming the variable in a function type isn't being used — that is, the linting errors are because we're linting Typescript code with a linter that doesn't understand Typescript.

I don't know how to fix that without fixing the linting — maybe I'm missing some angle?

You can fix the warning by adding the dependency to useEffect and suppress the two errors arising from the lack of TypeScript parsing.

Added the dep to useEffect; suppressing the two errors feels counter-productive, as I'll just have to take the disable statements back out once the linting fix lands.
