Incoming changes from upstream v2.4.0

This is version 2.4.0 of the Research Software Directory as a service. The main changes compare to v2.3.0 are:

added public profile pages for RSD users. This profile first needs to be enabled by the user by linking their ORCID to their RSD account, and opting-in to this feature. The ORCID is then used to find all software and projects in which this user is mentioned as a contributor and combined into a profile page.
the RSD database now stores which users have the RSD admin role. Previously this was set in the .env file.
improved test data generation

This release requires an update to the database. The migration script can be found here: https://github.com/research-software-directory/RSD-production/blob/main/database-migration/migration-scripts/2.3.0-to-2.4.0.sql
