HAWKULAR-28: Initial prototype for Angular Sidebar menu directive

Since we are nearing a release, I'm going to wait to merge this until after the release.

Also, I think the dual navigation could be confusing and needs further discussion with the UXD folks. We can have that talk on Monday's meeting.

I'm pretty sure sidebar navs should common at the plugin level(metrics, inventory, alerts) and not global. Or maybe only on Metrics not Inventory or Alerts. It is possible that UXD wants the sidebar navs to change at the individual page level though.

Another option could be to remove this from Hawkular Console and place the directives in hawkular-ui-components while eliminating all second level navigation for the plugin.

Ideally, having two cooperating directives would provide a very flexible solution.

<sidebarNav>
<navItem url="metrics/addUrl" label="Add Url" fa-font-image="" action="vm.addUrl()" />
<navItem url="metrics/addUrl" label="Add Url" fa-font-image="" action="vm.addUrl()" />

</sidebarNav>

I probably dont have all the correct properties or names, but just as example.

The home page when no URL has ever been entered should just have the URL input text (no navigation):

Then the left nav bar should appear and redirect to the "response" navigation entry with the content of http://localhost:8080/metrics/metricsResponse

It should not have top level bars. Alerts should be per URL (for now) and on the "alerts" side navigation bar. (Put all in there for now, dashboard, notifiers and definitions)
We should IMO even hide the inventory tab (an idea if we need access to it temporarily for development/testing is to put it on a URL such as localhost:8080/dev non visible to the user).

Once this is done, we'll be closer from the UXD reqs and we can share for comments, better split of what is "done" vs what is "temporary".

PS:We are missing a screen to CRUD Urls, in the meantime we can put a link in the very top bar, close to the username to add a new URL and present the same screen as on first call when no URL is present.
