Dynamic value of the readOnly field for FormGroup children

[pPrecel]

Description

It's not possible to make fields not operational dynamically. Right now we achieve that using the visibility field but we prefer to inform users that if the enabled field is false then other fields are still there but are not operational.

It would be nice to have a feature allowing developers to disable a form field but not hide it. In this case when the field is disabled (for example) turnes gray, the value can't be changed, bu it's still displaying the latest value.

Reasons

In our case we want to allow users to edit fields gateway and host only when the enabled field is true. In other cases values for these fields should be displayed but not possible to edit/change them.

Our module allows both configurations:

spec:
  externalAccess:
    enabled: true
    gateway: kyma-system/fs-super-gateway
    host: super-registry.fb7b356.stage.kyma.ondemand.com

and

spec:
  externalAccess:
    enabled: false
    gateway: kyma-system/fs-super-gateway
    host: super-registry.fb7b356.stage.kyma.ondemand.com

so we should not hide the gateway and the host in the form view when the enabled field is false
