Description

This module should allow us to add a purl (or some other templating mechanism to prevent duplication such as the version) to be able to integrate with https://github.com/bazel-contrib/supply-chain/tree/main/docs/metadata#as-module-author

It should also add provenance qualifiers to the PURL as defined in the [common qualifiers](https://github.com/package-url/purl-spec/blob/main/docs/common-qualifiers.md)

The goal is to be able to report what is used in a given artifact

Research direction

Start by reading the package_metadata integration guidance and the package-url common qualifiers specification linked in the issue. Identify the module entry point that emits artifact metadata, then determine how a purl or templating mechanism can avoid duplicated version data. Done means artifacts report their usage with provenance qualifiers in the expected purl metadata.
