Is your feature request related to a problem?

Need to create a new dashboard creation service using the serviceradar-dashboard-sdk that allows users to create new ad-hoc dashboards driven by SRQL queries:

users define a SRQL query
based on the fields returned from the query, user can select what visual they want to display for the metric
dashboards are saved in the system and can be retrieved by dashboard-id, https://serviceradar.cloud/dashboard/31337
option to turn these into reports that can be sent via email based on a user-defined schedule

We might not need to use the dashboard-sdk for this since it seems to be something that maybe should just end up in the core here.

For the scheduled report stuff, we should create an AshOban job for this, I don't think we want to create 1:1 ashOban jobs for every scheduled report since that could get quite large, but maybe we have one job that runs every hour (cron style) and checks to see if any scheduled report needs to get created and sent out.

Not exactly sure where users should go to create/view existing dashboards, don't really want to keep polluting the sidebar nav, but maybe its time to add an Analytics button. I don't think the correct place is the /dashboard which is basically the main landing page for the app.
