Description

The I24 Serial collect UI should allow the user to select which sample-protein-crystal is being collected. This crystal should be associated with the data collection as a BLSample, for sample grouping and analysis (metadata e.g. space group/unit cell) purposes. This list should be auto-populated based on the currently selected visit/proposal.

There are added complications about how to handle metadata about whether these shot crystal populations are actually comparable (e.g. pump-probe, ligand injection experiments) but that can probably be handled as downstream work.

### Dependent work

- Deciding how to tie this to database representation e.g. exactly what is listed
- Allowing users/beamline staff to register these representations
- Working out what needs to be created in the database for each collection (e.g. should a container be automatically generated for each sample for each collection).

Currently the "Sample" field linked on an individual collection is a _specific_ instance of e.g. a single crystal, which exists on a single container (puck), which was shipped in a dewer.

DataCollection }o--o| BLSample : Has
BLSample }o--o| Crystal : Is
Crystal }o--|| Protein : Is
BLSample }o--o| Container : Inside
Container }o--o| Dewer : Inside
```
The synchweb interface for registering these is heavily tied to the user-registering-for-shipping workflow and might not be fit-for-purpose for what we want to do here. A Beamline-scientist-runnable way to register whatever construction we want for this would be acceptable.

### Acceptance Criteria

- A selector field that lets the user specify what is being shot.
- This field is automatically populated from the database based on the currently selected visit.
- When data collections are made, it has an associated sample that maps to this selection.
