feat: drag and drop building block on canvas with skeleton loader (#31406)
## Description
**Goal**
To allow users drag and drop building blocks on the canvas just like
widgets today. We are also implementing a loading state with the
platform skeleton component immediately the user drops the block on the
canvas.

**Why**
The dropping of building blocks needs to make an API call to the backend
to process adding the building block functionality to the users app.
This loading skeleton acts as a placeholder for the block while the API
call is processing.

**How**
1. We had listed the building blocks in a previous
[PR](https://github.com/appsmithorg/appsmith/pull/31199)
2. Created a new saga to handle widget and building block addition
called `addUIEntitySaga`
3. The saga handles widget addition like it did previously, but also
handles building block addition to canvas.
