Refactor get_field_info method to include max_digits and decimal_places attributes in SimpleMetadata class

Description

This commit adds the max_digits and decimal_places attributes to the list of attributes included in the get_field_info method of the SimpleMetadata class in the Django Rest Framework. These attributes provide additional information about decimal fields, which was not previously included in the metadata. By adding these attributes to the output of the method, clients consuming the API will have more complete information about the fields in the serialized data, allowing them to make more informed decisions about how to interact with the API. This change was made in response to user feedback and is not expected to have any negative impact on existing functionality.

you need tests to avoid regression

[mahdirahimi1999]

Done.

Do I have to do anything special?

[auvipy]

we need some work to fix the codecov issue in the CI first
