OpCenter NAS Filesystems

Should be able to see NAS/NDMP filespaces as a column in Operation Center, and track last backup date.

Expectation:
Operation Center -> Clients -> NAS Filesystems
* Just like Virtual Machines expands out the entities and filespaces for each VM
* Should sort out all platform %NAS%, %NETAP%, etc.
*
* Schedules should look for admin schedules, client schedules, or scripts called by an admin schedule
* Status should show up from backup start, end, and last complete.
* Should be able to mark at_risk type of ignored, or similar to keep from failing for old, long retention.
* Alternatively, set a decommission date in the future

    Just to revisit this, I'm thinking:
    * Query the list of nodes of type NAS
    * Query the list of filespaces for those nodes
    * Display using similar semantics to how the VM list is generated.

    For the initial phase, it would be acceptable to have the same restrictions as VMs:
    * Custom at-risk still limited to a node, not a filespace
    * Lack of visibility into schedules other than client with named targets

    Future phases should look into admin schedules, and if admin schedules call scripts, look into those scripts.
