Feat: Enhance XCom table with Timestamp and unified Task column
This PR implements two major enhancements to the XCom table in the Airflow Web UI, addressing the user feedback in Issue #56507.
Background:
The original XCom table lacked critical information (Timestamp) and displayed redundant technical data ('Task ID' alongside 'Task Display Name'). This made the table less user-friendly and difficult to trace XCom creation times.
What this PR does:
Unifies Task Columns: Replaces the separate 'Task ID' and 'Task Display Name' columns with a single 'Task' column.
task_display_name.task_idwhen the display name is not available, ensuring task identification is always possible.Adds Timestamp Column: Introduces the 'Timestamp' column.
Notes:
These changes are focused on UI/UX improvements and do not impact core XCom functionality or data storage.
Fixes #56507
