Summary:
Ref T6741. Ref T10246.
Root problem: to provide Drydock in the cluster, we need to expose Almanac, and doing so would let users accidentally or intentionally create a bunch of `repo006.phacility.net` devices/services which could conflict with the real ones we manage.
There's currently no way to say "you can't create anything named `*.blah.net`". This adds "namespaces", which let you do that (well, not yet, but they will after the next diff).
After the next diff, if you try to create `repo003.phacility.net`, but the namespace `phacility.net` already exists and you don't have permission to edit it, you'll be asked to choose a different name.
Also various modernizations and some new docs.
Test Plan:
- Created cool namespaces like `this.computer`.
- Almanac namespaces don't actually enforce policies yet.

Summary:
Ref T5833. This allows Almanac ServiceTypes to define default properties for a service, which show up in the UI and are more easily editable.
Overall, this makes it much easier to make structured/usable/consistent service records: you can check a checkbox that says "prevent new allocations" instead of needing to know the meaning of a key.

Summary:
Ref T5833. Currently, we have an `AlmanacDeviceProperty`, but it doesn't use CustomFields and is specific to devices. Make this more generic:
- Reuse most of the CustomField infrastructure (so we can eventually get easy support for nice editor UIs, etc).
- Make properties more generic so Services, Bindings and Devices can all have them.
The major difference between this implementation and existing CustomField implementations is that all other implementations are application-authoritative: the application code determines what the available list of fields is.
I want Almanac to be a bit more freeform (basically: you can write whatever properties you want, and we'll put nice UIs on them if we have a nice UI available). For example, we might have some sort of "ServiceTemplate" that says "a database binding should usually have the fields 'writable', 'active', 'credential'", which would do things like offer these as options and put a nice UI on them, but you should also be able to write whatever other properties you want and add services without building a specific service template for them.
This involves a little bit of rule bending, but ends up pretty clean. We can adjust CustomField to accommodate this a bit more gracefully later on if it makes sense.
