Backup history for specified date frame

Hallo all

To get information about VM or application backup history, you should use /ngp/analytics/vmbackuphistory  or /ngp/analytics/dbbackuphistory rest-api endpoints.

It generally works... if you have small amount of VM's and your environment is quite fresh. As result, all asset backups history is presented (not limited by SLA retantion).
For biggest environment - it does not work.

The idea that I asked you to take into consideration is to provide some feature (e.g., rest-api endpoint), to query for asset's (vm / application) backup history with specified timeframe.
This timeframe can be like "last 10 days" or from date A to date B.
For asset specification, you should query for specified system or list of them.
As result, the best will be to have asset name, backup date, backup result (success / failed), SLA.  If as the result will also contains specified backup job id, it will also very useful for tracking job log details.

The solution should be useful in all monitoring and analytics tool for SPP.
