Opening this PR early to make it easier to show/review progress on this.

Depends on rockstor/rockstor-jslibs#8 and a future request for Backform.

Fixes #1432.

New Backbone versions no longer automatically set this on the object,
you have to pass it to initialize().
Allows user modifications to persist.
Provides automatic pre/post snapshots for each yum transaction,
just like the official plugin for zypper (SUSE systems).

Related: rockstor#1432
Embeds a Backform form within our standard Bootstrap panel element.
Can be used just like a Backform.Form view, because all constructor
arguments are passed on to the form.
Looks a little cleaner and more appropriate to me.
Newer versions of Backbone no longer implicitly attach these
to the view, so the relevant initialize functions now do so
explicitly.
Allow retrieving individual snapshots as well as full list.
This allows the collections of snapshots to be nested below their
configuration name in the web API.
This is better suited to snapper than the ListCreateAPIView, since
snapper's interface does not return Django models or querysets.
Configured subvolume is already returned by snapper. Return snapshot
userdata as a dict because that's what SetSnapshot accepts.
Necessary to make deletions function appropriately.

@sfranzen I am wondering what the status of this is since your last push? Now that 3.8.16 is out, I'd really like to catch up and looks like you put in a lot of work and certainly like to do my part here.

I would like to re-visit this pr once we have our move to openSUSE 'in the can'.
See forum post: Rebasing on to openSUSE?

Closing as we approach our next stable release. This can always be re-base if the interest / resources arise.

During our next testing phase, we will know more where we are to end up going re our front-end tech revamp.
