Description

When changing deps show the packages added and removed along with their versions, licences, and a link to hexdiff or the source on hex.

We will need to work out how to show this much information nicely.

It would be useful to include licence and links in gleam deps list also

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the current dependency listing output and the internal structures for dependency information in the Gleam compiler; then design a formatted output that includes added/removed packages with versions, licenses, and links.
