Helpscout: Improve plugin information in the sidebar widget.

[frantorres]

Improve the HelpScout widget that displays information about plugins in the sidebar, adding a link and the slug of the plugin.

This would make the team more efficient during reviews and in responding to email inquiries.

In the widget, for each plugin shown, after the name of the plugin and the "#" link (that goes to the public page of the plugin):

• Add a direct link to download the current version of the plugin (.zip file).
  • The symbol would be ↆ (U+2186 / ↆ / \2186)
  • Also show last updated relative date, as a short version: “6 days ago” would be “6d” / “1 month ago”, “1m” / “1 year ago”, “1y”
• Add, in a new line, the slug of the plugin. Without any link, so it can be easily copied. Also, being on a new line makes it easier to spot the differences.

The plugin status information will continue to be displayed after this.

New HTML Example

<li>
<a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-admin/post.php?post=163&action=edit" style="color:#FF0000;" target="_blank">WooCommerce</a>
 <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/woocommerce/" style="color:#FF0000;" target="_blank">#</a>
 <a href="https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/woocommerce.8.3.0.zip" style="color:#FF0000;" target="_blank">ↆ 6d</a>
<div><i>woocommerce</i> (Closed: Guideline Violation)</div>
</li>

A previous ticket on this topic #6323 (might help spotting where code is at).
