This PR adds a subgraph generator to model the relationship between metrics. There are a few special cases related to labeling the edges between metrics and their inputs. Normally, the group-by items available for a metric are an intersection of the available group-by items of the input metrics or input measures. However, there are a few special cases (e.g. cumulative metrics) that are more restrictive than this general rule. These labels will be later used to limit graph traversal.
