[FEATURE]: Patch type for component data type #900
Description
Describe the feature
Add a "patch" type to component's data, this would be used to classify the component as being used for patching the software.
Possible solutions
Add the "patch" type
Alternatives
I don't see any other alternative, we already have a source code component data type. Having a patch one would pair nicely.
Additional context
This is useful for build tools like Nix or Guix where everything is a derivation. Even source code is a derivation that is known as FOD (fixed output derivation). Patches can be derivations as patches can be fetched from the Internet or referenced via a path to be pulled in locally.
