   ### SUMMARY
   
   The `superset.connectors` submodule represents a bygone error of Superset 
when we supported both the Druid NoSQL and SQLAlchemy database engine 
connectors.
   
   Many of the base models and views are superfluous as they're only extended 
by one and only class. This PR:
   
   1. Integrates  the `BaseColumn` and `BaseMetric` classes into the 
`TableColumn` and `SqlMetric` classes respectively.
   2. Integrates the `DatasourceModelView` class into the `TableModelView` 
class.
   3. Moves `superset.connectors.base.models.BaseDatasource` to 
`superset.connectors.base.models.BaseDatasource`.
   
   Ideally I would love to deprecate the `BaseDatasource` however at this stage 
I'm not brave enough. Currently (in addition to `SqlaTable` class) the ` the 
`AnnotationDatasource` class is derived from it and thus sunsetting it is 
somewhat problematic. We maybe need to remove the `AnnotationDatasource` class 
somewhat like the `Query` class which behaves somewhat like a 
datasource/dataset.
   
   Without doubt the `superset.connectors` submodule should be abandoned with 
the models, views, and utilities moved elsewhere, but I thought it would be 
prudent to take smaller bites.
