Custom Version View plugin

This plugin introduces additional fields to the version view for a more detailed and informative experience:

• 🕒 Updated At: Displays the relative date of the last update, making it easy to track when changes were made (e.g., "3 hours ago").

• 👤 Updated By: Shows the user who made the last update.
