Is your enhancement related to a problem? Please describe
It's unintuitive how giving the direct path to a devfile in a git repo doesn't work for creating a workspace. For example, if you try starting a workspace from the following URL
https://github.com/che-samples/web-nodejs-sample/blob/main/devfile.yaml

https://github.com/che-samples/web-nodejs-sample/
.Describe the solution you'd like

https://github.com/che-samples/web-nodejs-sample/blob/main/devfile.yaml
.When doing so, I'd expect this to be interpreted as the Dashboard git repo options having the branch selected as well as the devfile path configured:
