Bug: GCMD Error on staging

[EJwalker13]

Describe the bug While testing the MI on staging we detected a few bugs in the GCMD section.

• [ ] 1. GCMD Error: Could not add metadata into any of the fields into the GCMD Project draft. It would not let me click on the text boxes.

• [ ] 2. GCMD Error: Was able to click on the text box and input metadata for GCMD Instruments, I went through the entire curation process of Compiling, Review, and Admin Review for the GCMD Instrument I created (XRS_test) but resulted in this error when I tried to publish the draft.

Draft Error Message: Unable to transition draft. gcmd_uuid Must be a valid UUID.

This instrument was assigned a Create Draft UUID (aab2a612-f5ca-447c-b1d5-d32d58df5483) but I received the error above when trying to publish the GCMD instrument.

Tested for GCMD platforms just to make sure if the same error is happening and it did. Received the exact same error message as GCMD instruments.

Draft Error Message: Unable to transition draft. gcmd_uuid. Must be a valid UUID.

I created a test platform called Ships_test and its Create Draft UUID is 95da2253-2e23-4f98-9f7f-d008c8ea5f8b

• [ ] 3. GCMD Error: The uuid field is missing in the GCMD to ingest a dummy uuid.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior of the 1st error:

1. Go to the side bar clicked Limited Fields > GCMD Items > GCMD Project
2. Click on Add New GCMD Project

1. Go to the side bar clicked Limited Fields > GCMD Items > GCMD Instruments

3. Add metadata into the fields, go through the review/admin review process, hit publish
4. ERROR Unable to transition draft. gcmd_uuid. Must be a valid UUID.

@CarsonDavis @EJwalker13 Can we confirm that generating GCMD Instruments by hand is actually something that we want users to be able to do? I was under the impression that the GCMD Sync tooling should do this for us.

Closing, it was determined that manually publishing GCMD records is not desirable.
