The Archived Time Plot Widget currently only supports a live+archived data, this pull requests looks to add a mode where the widget would only pull and display archived data from the given data source.
Motivation and Context
At SLAC we are developing a new Archive Viewer, which we wish to also double with displaying live data--which is the current functionally of the PYDM Archiver Time Plot Widget. We also need it to be able to display only archived data without fetching live data. We think this functionality would be useful to the greater PYDM community.
How Has This Been Tested?
Will be tested on an example GUI and unit tests will be included in the PR.
