Floe metadata authoring demo iteration 2

[Jonathan Hung]

Hi everyone,

Attached is an updated design based on the discussion with Dana.

Changes to Page 3:
- the sidebar now shows multiple editable values, not just Captions.
- the sidebar is now labelled to reflect the content being edited - in this
case it is video content.

Changes to Page 6:
- when there is no video content in the editor, the sidepanel is empty.

Feedback is welcome.

Thanks!
