Updates
Check population sources are returned by the metadata endpoint and displayed in FDE (DATA-3234)
Completed a check to ensure any endpoints that include population data also include the population source. The Spatial data sources

Short descriptions were added to the headers of the FDE domain pages to provide context for users.

Problems modifying date selections in FDE (DATA-3588)
Corrections were made to the date picker UI in the search and filter header for FDE domains. Users can now browse and select dates as expected.
Country filter on documents admin page in FDW (DATA-3627)
Changed the country filter on the FDW data source documents admin page to be able to return source documents that do not have any data, in addition to source documents with data series tied to them.
Unable to open commodities R01122AA and R01112A (DATA-3640)
FDW users were unable to open the ClassifiedProduct
admin change screen due to the size of the dataseries_list
slowing down the page. The data series list has now been moved to a separate page, and a Related Data Series link was added to the admin change screen.
