Enhancement: show image tag in aiidalab-launch status.

[yakutovicha]

To have a quick overview of what is going on, I think it is a good idea to show the image tag in aiidalab-launch status. Even though it is already shown in aiidalab-launch profiles show <profile_name>.

Would you expect it to be of the form aiidalab/aiidalab-docker-stack:latest for the running container? We could try this, however be aware, that this might not be 100% well defined since the image might have changed since you started the container and the same image can also be tagged in different ways.

My other concern is that this would make the status output extremely wide.

Personally, I would prefer to have something like this:

Profile    Container         Status    Mount                        Image                           Tag     URL
---------  ----------------  --------  ---------------------------  ------------------------------  ------  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
default    aiidalab_default  up        /Users/yakutovicha/aiidalab  aiidalab/aiidalab-docker-stack  latest  http://localhost:8888/?token=....

Hmm, indeed, it looks like the only information one could reliably get is the image's sha and the name. Getting the tag seems not to be easy. At the same time, the tag that has been requested is known from the config. To avoid confusion, we might want to call it not just "Tag", but "Requested Tag" or similar:

Profile    Container         Status    Mount                        Image                           Requeted Tag  URL
---------  ----------------  --------  ---------------------------  ------------------------------  ------------  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
default    aiidalab_default  up        /Users/yakutovicha/aiidalab  aiidalab/aiidalab-docker-stack  latest        http://localhost:8888/?token=......

True. We might want to leave the things to be displayed configurable, so the user can decide what to show. Like --tag/--no-tag to display the tag, -a to display everything. But at this point it feels like I am overcomplicating things 😅.

I think the option to show the Image tag is most important to developers and not so much to users. For users it is much more important that the URL is shown in full to be able to easily open it in the browser. I would be open to showing the tag as part of a --wide status view. Please let me know if you would like to implement this.
