Improve UI/UX in Open-Source checkbox columns

At the moment, The Hardware Configuration uses two checkboxes to declare whether the item is open-source or installed. I think this is slightly confusing as typically checkboxes are meant to be clicked in order to change state!

I think a better solution for the UI would to be changing the Open-source column to instead be called "Source", and display a string instead of a checkbox, as a string does not imply interactivity.

If it is open source, it should display "Open Source", if it is not, it should display "Proprietary". I think that will be a slightly less confusing experience, since everyone I have shown this menu to has remarked that the checkboxes don't make sense.

Similarly, I think installed being a checkbox implies to the user that clicking it will install the driver. However, that isn't the case. This issue is slightly harder to rectify, though. Maybe it warrants a separate issue.

I would make a PR to fix this, but it doesn't appear as an option for me.

To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have an admin enable hashed storage. More information
