feat: create items for uk met office

[gadomski]

Description

I've opened this branch against microsoft#346 to re-use the directory and collection templates. This is my best-guess of how this will work until I can test it against a system.

I'm going to set up a secret called STAGING_DB_CONNECTION_STRING in the pctasks key vault. When you submit the workflows to the production pctasks server to create the collection and ingest items, you will need to set an environment variable in the workflow DB_CONNECTION_STRING to the value of secrets.STAGING_DB_CONNECTION_STRING. I'll create that secret and let you know when it's ready to use.

If you don't override the secret, collections and items will be written to the prod database, which we don't want yet.

The secret has been created, it's called staging-db-connection-string , please try using that connection string and let us know if it works!
