Add deployment name to flow run list item crumbs

First check

• I added a descriptive title to this issue.
• I used the GitHub search to find a similar request and didn't find it.
• I searched the Prefect documentation for this feature.

Prefect Version

2.x

Describe the current behavior

The flow run list item shows related flow but not deployment info

Describe the proposed behavior

If a flow run is associated with a deployment, add deployment name and a link to the deployment as the first crumb in the list item

Example Use

Users can see at a glance which deployment their run is associated with

Additional context

No response

Would it be appropriate to use the deployment icon text component rather than adding this to the crumbs? We're already doing this on the flow run page.

I'm thinking of two things

• Crumbs will be pretty long with the deployment
• Not every flow run has a deployment. So we'll end up with crumbs of different sizes making it harder to scan the list.

Fair points! How about instead of first crumb, put it as the last (right-most) crumb?

I mentioned this request on Slack, because we want easier attribution from the Flow Runs listing. Our work is highly parametrized (using dbt_flow), with the parameters basically reflected in our Deployment name. (ex. the selected DBT node and target)

The search and dropdown filters by 'Deployment' are helpful BUT, I'm still lacking attribution on what exactly is scheduled / failed using the Flow Runs listing. We only have the randomized flow run names, and the other crumbs don't shed enough light on what's run besides 'dbt_flow'. Apologies if the problem was already obvious to you; @zhen0's succinct description is pretty good, but I'm hoping to add some flavor as a new user to Prefect 2.

There is a fair amount of horizontal space, left.. but I understand the hesitation to add more things, as things can begin to look cluttered.

Not every flow run has a deployment. So we'll end up with crumbs of different sizes making it harder to scan the list.

If deployment is the right-most element, I still believe a user looking for a specific deployment (or no deployment) can easily spot their desired flow run. Cheers, thanks for the quick triage, and tagging as 'good first issue' 😄

@brandonreid @zhen0 is this done? Deployment and work queue were added to the flow run list item in PrefectHQ/prefect-ui-library#693

Yep! I think we can consider this closed. Thanks @pleek91
