Migrate `/targets` to use `/api/v1/targets` as the backend

[RichiH]

Very low prio, but targets should use /api/v1/targets instead of dumping HTML at the user.

I'm against doing this partially. We started implementing API endpoints for things visible in the UI a while ago to support building UIs purely against the API. But we shouldn't attempt migrating single pages to fetch data via JS while others remain being rendered at the server. That would just make our JS code more messy than it already is. Probably needs a new UI like Alertmanager.

Same. Stuart, Andrey and I talked about a new UI already. Plans for this have been around for a long time. On Mon, Aug 14, 2017 at 4:02 PM Fabian Reinartz <notifications@github.com> wrote:

Valid point; "migrate everything under /status once the new status APIs are done" sounds saner.
