Add Total Duration to CI/CD Analytics Page

What does this MR do?

This MR adds the summed-up duration of all pipelines of a project on the CI/CD analytics page.

It also moves the formatPipelineDuration method of the time_ago component (see highlighted screenshot of it below) into a util file. Currently, that method only works for durations < 24 hours because the implementation used the native Date method. I replaced the implementation with arithmetic operators (modulo and division), in order for it to work in projects with many and/or long-running pipelines, such as the GitLab project.

Why "total duration"? I find it an interesting stat, however an average pipeline duration per day, week, or month might be more helpful if a user wants to reduce the pipeline durations.
