Adding additional information to the ui

[f0rzer]

Selenoid-ui revision proposal
Add additional information about the state of the container
in point number 1 - information about the lifetime of the container, now it is visually difficult to understand how much the test is being performed
in point number 2 - ip / hostname of the node where the container is running

these are not very important features, but it will help increase the comfort of use

1. Аll this information should be first of all passed through Selenoid /status API.
2. Regarding container lifetime - shouldn't all these statistics be calculated on the tests side?
3. Don't get the used case of showing the hostname.

[f0rzer]

1. ok
2. duration of the test is fixed after its execution. it would be clear for me to see them in real time
3. could write what is a bad option to see the test execution environment (provided that it is not a cluster, but statically allocated nodes)?

@f0rzer I think you want some kind of monitoring - for that better to go for a grafana panel https://github.com/aerokube/selenoid-grafana-example
I can understand the timer requirement - that would be nice really to track. But due to stateless nature of the selenoid and ui thats impossible to implement. And we don't want to bring a state in selenoid, as it would complicate things.
It's also hard to implement on the UI side, as it polls the state only when you're on the page.

I hold this issue, as it requires changing the state management in the selenoid, which we don't want to do and I don't really see the way ui can handle it on its own.

Maybe docker could provide us with this state, but still - have to be first exported by selenoid first then, so here is an issue there regarding docker stuff export in the status api aerokube/selenoid#963
