Add support for a new edge type, used for intermediary map/reduce results

Description

When building complex hierarchies we sometime need to add intermediary business service objects in order to get the desired status propagation.

Since these aren't actually business services, we should introduce a new edge type explicitly for this purpose.

These would differ from business services in that:

  • They do not generate status changed events, or alarms

  • They are easily identifiable using a different icon

Possible name: "influencer" edge

Possible icon: http://cdn.sstatic.net/Sites/cs/img/apple-touch-icon@2.png?v=dcc3195a4581&a
