Some functions are broken without data in the DB, what to do?

[d22]

Some features (e.g global search in navbar) are broken when the DB has no data.

What should we do?

Problems I've found so far:

• Regid view doesn't work (table does not exist)
• Tags view doesn't work (table does not exist)
• Statistics view doesn't work (Exception Value: no such column: devices.product)
• Gobal search in navbar does not work (Exception Value: no such column: devices.product)
• Products can't be deleted (Exception Value: no such column: devices.product)
• Can't create device (Exception Value: table devices has no column named product)
• Can't add group (Exception Value: no such column: devices.product)
• Can't delete policy (Exception Value: delete() got an unexpected keyword argument 'policyID')

Most problems seem to be causded by the missing column product in the devices table. So I guess we can fix this pretty easily.

How should we proceed? What do you think @dbrgn and @cfaessler, should we just fix the "default-empty DB" in the repo?

I think generally there should be no such thing as a "default empty db" in the repo. Let's discuss it on Wednesday.

We will create an empty sqlite DB.
