## Summary

This PR introduces the Cloud Security DataTable component, meant to
replace and consolidate the tables used in the Cloud Security plugin

The CloudSecurityDataTable component is a wrapper over the
`<UnifiedDataTable/>` component. We made that decision based on the
number of features it provides for the users plus support from the most
common features such as Flyout, Sort, Filtering, and Pagination to the
most advanced features like Virtualization and DataView integration.

- **Virtualization**: Thanks to Virtualization, users can fetch more
data on the table than the limit of `500`, and also use larger items per
page if desired.
- **DataView integration**: This option allows users to rename Columns
as needed by setting custom labels in the DataView.
- **Column control**: Users can move columns and resize it as needed,
and that settings is saved on the local storage.
- **Row Height control**: Users can modify in the Advanced Settings ->
`discover:rowHeight` the height of the row.

Below is a Matrix comparing the features between the current Findings
table, the Vulnerabilities Data Grid and the new CloudSecurityDataTable.

Feature | CloudSecurity DataTable (new >= 8.11) | Findings Table
(current <= 8.10) | Vulnerabilities Data Grid (current <= 8.10)

✅

user-defined column renaming | ✅ (using DataViews) | ❌ | ❌


### Regressions

There are some regressions such as losing the ability to paginate on the
Flyout and the table pagination is no longer controlled by URL params,
that's because pagination is controlled by an internal state in the
`<UnifiedDataTable/>` component, and we plan to re-enable those features
again in the future by contributing to the `<UnifiedDataTable/>`
component.
