✨ ARFlow Example Page (#5320)

<!--
Open the PR up as a draft until you feel it is ready for a proper
review.

Do not make PR:s from your own `main` branch, as that makes it difficult
for reviewers to add their own fixes.

Add any improvements to the branch as new commits to make it easier for
reviewers to follow the progress. All commits will be squashed to a
single commit once the PR is merged into `main`.

Make sure you mention any issues that this PR closes in the description,
as well as any other related issues.

To get an auto-generated PR description you can put "copilot:summary" or
"copilot:walkthrough" anywhere.

Follow up on #4121. Sorry for the extremely long delay. But we had
several important developments in Unity and XR streaming. We released an
individual project
[ARFlow](https://github.com/cake-lab/ARFlow?tab=readme-ov-file) that
contains more comprehensive streaming and visualization supports. We
also released [Paper](https://doi.org/10.1145/3638550.3643617), [Project
Page](https://cake.wpi.edu/ARFlow/), and
[Video](https://youtu.be/mml8YrCgfTk).

[![Demo

For this PR, I followed your previous recommendation of submitting a
paper visualization-style example page. It looks like you have
screenshot images served at `static.rerun.io`, and you might need a few
short videos for the website (like this
[page](https://www.rerun.io/examples/paper-visualizations/shape_pointe)).
Let me know if I can help with that. Thanks!

+ARFlow is designed to lower the barrier for AR researchers to evaluate ideas in hours instead of weeks or months, following:
+- **Efficient AR experiment data collection** from various data sources, including camera, depth sensors, and IMU sensors with an efficient thin mobile client.
+- Flexible AR runtime data **management** with **real-time visualization** (powered by Rerun).
+- **Easy integration** with existing AR research projects without breaking the experimentation logic.

+abstract = {The recent advancement in computer vision and XR hardware has ignited the community's interest in AR systems research. Similar to traditional systems research, the evaluation of AR systems involves capturing real-world data with AR hardware and iteratively evaluating the targeted system designs [1]. However, it is challenging to conduct scalable and reproducible AR experimentation [2] due to two key reasons. First, there is a lack of integrated framework support in real-world data capturing, which makes it a time-consuming process. Second, AR data often exhibits characteristics, including temporal and spatial variations, and is in a multi-modal format, which makes it difficult to conduct controlled evaluations.},
