Description
### Current Behavior
Status / Support Life Cycle of packages is not tracked by Dependency Track
### Proposed Behavior
Some package repositories provide information about packages that are abondoned (Composer). Other repositories might also provide information about whether packages are supported or unsupported.
It would be good if these could be tracked by Dependency Track, for example to add risk scores or flags to packages that are abandoned.
Some example from Compose / Packagist:
https://packagist.org/p2/laminas/laminas-text.json
`"abandoned": true`
https://packagist.org/p2/laminas/laminas-mail.json
`"abandoned": "symfony/mailer"`
`symfony-mailer` is suggested as replacement for the abandoned `laminas-mail`.
