Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
As a Janeway preprints administrator, I want to ensure that systems reading preprints metadata are able to obtain all information that they see on the public item page, including custom fields.

Describe the solution you'd like
Add to the oai-pmh feed custom fields provided in Janeway.

DC feed: Use the DC value for the field, where provided.
JATS feed: Ideally there would also be a JATS value. (see: https://github.com/BirkbeckCTP/janeway/issues/3363)

Additional context
See also issue re: not exposing certain fields: https://github.com/BirkbeckCTP/janeway/issues/3364

Research direction

Start by locating the OAI-PMH feed implementation and how its DC metadata is assembled. Review related issues 3363 and 3364 for the JATS and excluded-field context. Done means custom fields appear in the DC feed using their DC values where available, with JATS handling tracked separately.
