implement partial data set support in the netui data grid
---------------------------------------------------------

         Key: BEEHIVE-1102
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEEHIVE-1102
     Project: Beehive
        Type: Improvement

  Components: NetUI  
    Versions: V1, 1.0.1, v.next    
    Reporter: Eddie O'Neil


The NetUI data grid supports rendering complete data sets, but it would be 
quite useful if the grid supported rendering partial / incomplete data sets.  
This would allow webapp controller logic to fetch a smaller amount of data from 
a database or via an ORM framework like Hibernate or OpenJPA.  

There are some changes needed in the data grid to support this -- specifically, 
the data grid needs to support:

  - a partialDataSet attribute that forces the grid to start rendering data 
from the beginning of a data set rather than the middle
  - support from the PagerModel to render the "current" item of data based on 
the value from a URL rather than from the location in the data set
  - support from the data grid for finding the absolute "current" index in a 
data set rather than the relative "current" index in a partial data set.  This 
would allow updates to work correctly when a data grid or row is updating an 
item in a data set.
