Dependency graph-based search #1216

We could search based on the dependency graph. Ex. click on an edge and it switch to the search view, corresponding to it. This could allow people to explore zipkin's data visually.

This implies we change /api/v1/traces (and QueryRequest) to allow multiple service names (at least 2).

ps to support this, we would need to have a link index (in order to get happens-before as opposed to just a span having 2 services in it), this would be something dependency linker could do, for example... index link -> list of trace ids
