Metron 1123: Add group by option using faceted search capabilities of
metron-rest-api
## Contributor Comments
This PR extends the Metron Alerts GUI capabilities to do group by on Alerts
Data
The PR is on top of METRON-1189
The group by buttons appear on top of the table. When user selects a group,
the table view changes to a tree view with the values of the groups as the root
of the tree. The individual alerts would be shown as the leaf nodes of the tree.
Tree view has all the following features
- Search will search through all the groups
- Users can click on the data inside the table to search
- Users can select and table inside tree to view the details
- Users can escalate the alerts from the table inside the tree
- Tree view is refreshed automatically depending on the polling setting in
the settings
- A cumulative score and number of alerts in a group is shown next to
group name
- Table inside a group can be paginated
- The column names for the alerts table in the tree can be configured via
configure column pane
The table config settings is moved next to settings on the GUI as it makes
more meaning there.



## Testing
E2E test cases are available to test groups functionality. From root of the
project
```
cd metron-interface/metron-alerts
sh ./scripts/start-server-for-e2e.sh
```
In othere shell run the test cases
```
npm run e2e
```
All the features listed in contributor comments can be verified manually
