applied series, much thanks! FYI, pushed the following small patches on top:

ui: datastore summary: clarify that it's a deduplication factor
ui: datastore: used fixed-width icons for summary
ui: datastore: change GC/Prune title and buttons a bit
ui: datastore: add confirmation message to verify all


Some possible additions and thoughts:

* warning on summary if no GC, prune or verify job is configured (especially verify should
  be an warning-triangle, the other could be "notice-exclamation-mark" level)

* The "Removed Bytes" in the summary is a bit strange to me, I'd rather drop it

* make the backup count thing aligned like a table, with the Groups and Snapshots as column
  header, and maybe a "Total" row at the end with all summed up

* not sure where we'd put the only recently added "verify_new" datastore option, it could be
  possible to rename "Verify Jobs" to "Verification" and add a option panel over the jobs one,
  would only host that setting for now, though.

* onlineHelp buttons for all panels and their edit dialogs please (@Dylan, @Oguz, @all)
