      Dynamic data for osTicket · 9e75169e
      Jared Hancock authored
      *This is a major redesign / rework of the osTicket base*
      
      This patch drops the concept of static ticket metadata and allows for an
      admin-configurable arbitrary data that is attachable to tickets
      
      The system is architected such that the base osTicket install now comes with
      a "default" form that has fields for subject, name, email, and phone number.
      This form is editable to allow for the addition of arbitrary other fields;
      however, the basic fields must remain in order to be associated with a
      help-topic and attached to a ticket.
      
      This concept can be expanded to allow for arbitrary data associated with
      registered clients or ticket thread items.
      
      Forms are comprised of sections. Sections have a title and instructions
      properties and a list of fields. Fields have various implementations to
      represent different data such as text, long answer, phone number, datetime,
      yes/no, and selections, and are configurable to define the look and feel and
      interpretation of the respective form field.
      
      Dropdown lists are represented as "Dynamic Lists", which are
      admin-configurable lists of items. Dropdowns can be optionally represented
      as Bootstrap typeahead fields.
      
      This also adds the start of a simple ORM which will hopefully be expanded in
      the future to support multiple database platforms. Currently, only MySQL is
      implemented.
