What this PR does / why we need it:
The PR adds an experimental "Archival" metadatablock. The purpose of the metadatablock is to enable repositories to register metadata relating to the potential archiving of the dataset at a depositor archive, whether that being your own institutional archive or an external archive i.e. a historical archive.
See related conversation on the Google Group: https://groups.google.com/g/dataverse-community/c/2wi1EnQwVOM
The original source of the "archival.tsv" file was created by University of Stuttgart. You can see the example here: https://github.com/izus-fokus/darus-metadata-blocks/blob/master/archival.tsv
I further expanded and edited on this source to what it is presented as now. I have asked University of Stuttgart for feedback on the 17th of May but have not heard anything. Therefore I send this PR in the hopes that Uni Stuttgart agrees with advancing this PR to get it into the source code and that we could use this PR for a review, where we would reach out to Uni Stuttgart and others for feedback before merging, and incorporating this feedback into the PR.
PS. This is my first Dataverse PR, I apologize for any formal requirements I may have missed. Secondly, I have not tested the PR, because I have not setup my computer for compiling and deploying the Dataverse source code yet. I still mean to do this.
Which issue(s) this PR closes:
Closes #
Special notes for your reviewer:
The PR only adds the metadata block. I'm not sure if there is more code needed to make the experimental metadata block discoverable by the sysadmin to enable it. If so, please help me with guidance.
Suggestions on how to test this:
Does this PR introduce a user interface change? If mockups are available, please link/include them here:
Maybe, a metadata block is viewable in the UI, but it does not change anything in the UI on how metadata blocks work.
Is there a release notes update needed for this change?:
I think so, yes.
