[Ovmsdev] Web UI plugin support / metric displays

[Michael Balzer]

Just a short intro for those that haven't followed the git log: the web framework now supports plugins, which currently can contain HTML to be used as a page or
as an extension to an existing page.

I'm now working on documentation and simplification of the framework features to make writing plugins easy. Users most often asked for an option to extend the
dashboard or add a custom dashboard. That's now very simple using the plugin system and the standard metrics displays.

To install the metrics demo:

  * Add a page plugin "demo.metrics", with…
  * …page "/usr/demo/metrics"
  * …label "Metrics Demo"
  * …menu "Tools"
  * …auth "None" or "Cookie"
  * …content copied from: https://github.com/openvehicles/Open-Vehicle-Monitoring-System-3/blob/master/vehicle/OVMS.V3/components/ovms_webserver/dev/metrics.htm

Please have a look at the page and tell me if you miss something.

Regards,
Michael
