Description

What would you like to be added: A button or link from the list of instances of a CRD to the details panel of that CRD

Why is this needed: Better UX around CRDs. Some uses have noted that it is non-obvious that the "Definitions" list of CRDs, themselves, is where a user should go to view that details panel.

Research direction
Investigate the current CRD instances list view component in the repository to understand how CRD instances are displayed. Look into the CRD details panel component to find the correct route or navigation method. The issue references #4180 which may provide additional context. Add a link or button that navigates from the CRD instances list to the CRD definitions details panel.
