Added a button to release/unrelease grades

[dwang3851]

Description

• Added a button to the view source page to release grades
• Added an indicator next to the grades tabs to show if a problem's score is released or unreleased
• If all of the scores for a submission are released, there is a unrelease grades button

Screenshots:

Motivation and Context

-Currently, scores can only be released all at once, or through the individual problems on a gradesheet

• There is no easy way to release grades for a single student
  Resolves Allow release of individual student scores #2063

How Has This Been Tested?

• I tested in my local environment (autolab manual installation) with a student, TA, and instructor account
• Checked that none of the changes are observable from a student account
• Ensured both TA and course instructors are able to use the release grades button

Types of changes

• New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality)

Checklist:

• I have run rubocop and erblint for style check. If you haven't, run overcommit --install && overcommit --sign to use pre-commit hook for linting
• My change requires a change to the documentation, which is located at Autolab Docs
• I have updated the documentation accordingly, included in this PR

Assessment against linked issues

Objective	Addressed	Explanation
Allow release of individual student scores (#2063)	✅
Simplify the grade release process and address grading deadline confusion (#1717)	❓	The changes seem to support more granular control over grade releases, which could simplify the process, but it's unclear if the grading deadline confusion is directly addressed.

Chat

There are 3 ways to chat with CodeRabbit:

• Review comments: Directly reply to a review comment made by CodeRabbit. Example:
  • I pushed a fix in commit <commit_id>.
  • Generate unit-tests for this file.
• Files and specific lines of code (under the "Files changed" tab): Tag @coderabbitai in a new review comment at the desired location with your query. Examples:
  • @coderabbitai generate unit tests for this file.
  • @coderabbitai modularize this function.
• PR comments: Tag @coderabbitai in a new PR comment to ask questions about the PR branch. For the best results, please provide a very specific query, as very limited context is provided in this mode. Examples:
  • @coderabbitai generate interesting stats about this repository from git and render them as a table.
  • @coderabbitai show all the console.log statements in this repository.
  • @coderabbitai read src/utils.ts and generate unit tests.
  • @coderabbitai read the files in the src/scheduler package and generate a class diagram using mermaid and a README in the markdown format.

Note: Be mindful of the bot's finite context window. It's strongly recommended to break down tasks such as reading entire modules into smaller chunks. For a focused discussion, use review comments to chat about specific files and their changes, instead of using the PR comments.

LGTM, other than that the buttons do not update when annotations are created (e.g. a nil score is now non-nil and unreleased).
