Story

Spike for a discovery of how notifications in ArgoCD could potentially be implemented. Currently, there seem to be 2 main directions where we could go:

1. Implement notifications to the backend plugin, which would mean significant changes to the plugin since currently it is very simple and just uses a polling mechanism to fetch data which are then rendered on the frontend.
2. Provide documentation for users of the plugin on how to connect their ArgoCD instances directly to Backstage's built-in notification system. This means that they would be able to configure the content of the notification as well as the triggers for the notification.
