* Update frontend to Mithril 2
- Update Mithril version to v2.0.4
- Add Typescript typings for Mithril
- Rename "props" to "attrs"; "initProps" to "initAttrs"; "m.prop" to "m.stream"; "m.withAttr" to "utils/withAttr".
- Use Mithril 2's new lifecycle hooks
- SubtreeRetainer has been rewritten to be more useful for the new system
- Utils for forcing page re-initializations have been added (force attr in links, setRouteWithForcedRefresh util)
- Other mechanical changes, following the upgrade guide
- Remove some of the custom stuff in our Component base class
- Introduce "fragments" for non-components that control their own DOM
- Remove Mithril patches, introduce a few new ones (route attrs in <a>;
- Redesign AlertManagerState `show` with 3 overloads: `show(children)`, `show(attrs, children)`, `show(componentClass, attrs, children)`
- The `affixedSidebar` util has been replaced with an `AffixedSidebar` component
Challenges:
- `children` and `tag` are now reserved, and can not be used as attr names
- Behavior of links to current page changed in Mithril. If moving to a page that is handled by the same component, the page component WILL NOT be re-initialized by default. Additional code to keep track of the current url is needed (See IndexPage, DiscussionPage, and UserPage for examples)
- Native Promise rejections are shown on console when not handled
- Instances of components can no longer be stored. The state pattern should be used instead.

Only users that have the new `viewHiddenGroups` permissions will be able to see these groups.
You might want this when you want to give certain users special permissions, but don't want to make your authorization scheme public to regular users.

This includes an API endpoint for fetching the list of possible
drivers and their configuration fields. In the future, this can
be extended to include more meta information about each field.
