When a package is installed or is a dependency, the "Archive" column in
the *Packages* buffer does not display the archive information.  This
happens because the function `describe-package-1` in `package.el` skips
the Archive section for installed packages due to the following
conditional check:

(unless (and pkg-dir (not archive)) ; Installed pkgs don't have archive.
  (package--print-help-section "Archive"
    (or archive "n/a")))

The expected behavior is that the "Archive" column should display the
archive name (e.g., "gnu", "nongnu", "other unofficial archive") for
packages in the installed or dependency status.  This would be helpful
because:

1. Traceability: It would allow users to easily identify the source archive
   of a package, which is useful for debugging, auditing, and understanding
   the package's origin.

2. Security: It would provide users with additional context about the
   package's source, helping them make informed decisions about the code
   they use.

3. Consistency: Archive information is part of the package metadata, and
   displaying it consistently would improve the user experience by making
   this information readily available.

Currently, the archive information is not displayed for installed or
dependency packages, which makes it harder to track the source of these
packages.  This behavior is implemented in the `describe-package-1`
function in `package.el`, starting around line 2890.  A review of this
behavior would be appreciated to ensure users have access to this helpful
metadata.
