DRILL-5981: Add Syntax Highlighting and Error Checking to Storage Plugin
Config
This PR adds syntax highlighting to the storage plugin configuration page
in the Drill web UI, as shown below.

In addition, and the real reason I'd like to see this included is that it
also incorporates error checking, again as shown below:

I know there is some objection about including javascript libraries in
Drill. However, I work on a closed network and it is difficult if not
impossible to build Drill from source if the libraries are not included. I
removed all JavaScript files except the bare minimum.
