Improve screen usage on admin pages

[only1chunts]

User story

As a admin user
I want the individual admin pages to make better use of screen realestate So that I dont need to scroll down to see all the content And so that the screen is more aestetically pleasing

Acceptance criteria

Given I am on any admin page When view the data Then it makes better use of the width of screen, instead of being restricted to a narrow band in the middle

eg

The pages effected are: File admin e.g. https://staging.gigadb.org/adminFile/update/id/546878

Sample admin e.g. https://staging.gigadb.org/adminSample/update/id/188042

Author https://staging.gigadb.org/adminAuthor/update/id/3

Dataset_Author https://staging.gigadb.org/adminDatasetAuthor/update/id/11175

Dataset_Sample https://staging.gigadb.org/adminDatasetSample/update/id/339

.... Basically all of them except Dataset!

Additional Info

This may help when looking at #54 for making the sample admin page more user-friendly

@only1chunts can you clarify if you mean using a two columns layout for the form?

[only1chunts]

I'm open to suggestions, but yes having the field names to the left of the value fields would seem a better use of screen realestate to me. NB - the red outlines were just to show the volume of unused space on the screen.

Hi @only1chunts

it's not clear what problem is to be solved here, the user story 'so that' section is not very clear

[only1chunts]

Updated the "so that", hopefully that helps. essentially it seems odd to have all that space available but only use a narrow tract down the middle, especially when the page contents is quite long due to that narrowness on some of the pages, notably the file admin and potentially the sample admin page after you have adjusted how we intereact with the sample attributes (#54).
