[FR] Investigate the use of recipe indexes for recipe add page #10

Description

@grahampugh

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
AutoPkgr has a right-click option to look at the details of a recipe before adding it. Conversely, Wizard currently only exposes this information if you add the recipe to the Recipe List, and then press on the (i) button, which performs an autopkg info command.

Describe the solution you'd like
The https://github.com/autopkg/index repo generates an index of recipes within the autopkg org every 4 hours. This json file could be downloaded on launch and used for a button to show information about a recipe you might want to add.

This only covers repos in the autopkg org, but I have developed a method of providing the index on a repo-by-repo basis. So, any repo that has its own index.json in the root could be used to provide the information.

Describe alternatives you've considered
The use of autopkg info on the add page is probably too clunky as it will be slow to render.
