Resolve Dependabot alerts

abelemlih commented 1 year ago

@bwatson78 @rotated8 @alexBLR I considered upgrading Blacklight to 7.33, but looking through all the test failures, it is clear we will need major changes to how we render views to successfully upgrade. Latest versions of Blacklight rely on view components extensively, and we will need to adjust our overwrites to ensure everything is functional when we upgrade. For now, to resolve the Dependabot alerts, I upgraded Rails to 5.2, and implemented a backward compatibility fix used in Blacklight v7.28 to ensure everything in our app works as expected.
