Missing react component: expression editor

[himdel]

Expression editor, rendered from the layouts/exp_editor partial (app/views/layouts/_exp_editor.html.haml).

Found in:

the views above not only include exp_editor but often also render a part of the view.

API changes in https://github.com/ManageIQ/manageiq-api/pull/712

(we won't be doing autocomplete for now, but it seems we can use the proposed API to populate all the field choices)

The new component should also support accessibility, added it to the list of tasks there.

@GilbertCherrie and i had a discussion with @Fryguy on this issue, some points from discussion:

• We want to change existing UI to react and we will not be implementing auto suggest part.
• We have WIP API PR opened (https://github.com/ManageIQ/manageiq-api/pull/712). But, it is not useful for implementing the current UI with multiple drop downs (each dropdown options are based on previous dropdown options selection).
• We have to create a new api end point for expression editor which works with translations too.
• Plan is to do conversion in pieces, in order Edit Expression part have to implement first.

@Fryguy If i miss adding anything, feel free to add more here.
