After this change, luci-base will render the first module or application
page installed on the system, instead of rendering a "Component not found"
message when the status category is unavailable.
This allows for single-purpose LuCI installations like e.g. luci-base with
luci-app-travelmate which only presents application specific views without
any of the standard system pages.

Move some common elements to luci-base, and otherwise make three
packages out of status, system, and network. They were mostly
separated already, but there were some shared elements between
status and network that are now in luci-base.

Per the discussion in https://github.com/openwrt/luci/issues/869, make
luci-base sufficient to login, logout, and review and apply or revert
uci changes. This allows most luci-app-xxx to work without having
luci-mod-admin-full installed.
It has been tested with some apps and not luci-mod-admin-full, as well
as with luci-mod-admin-full (to make sure the usual case doesn't break).
Instead of creating a new module namespace (e.g. 'Base') we reduce the
opportunities for breakage by having luci-base take over the 'shell' of
the 'Administration' (admin/....) namespace.
Since admin is assumed by all current building LuCI components (including
Freifunk), this doesn't introduce the 'Administration' tab into any
situation where it would not already be present (but includes it where it
was before).
We also add a "Component not installed" page to avoid fatal errors and
backtrace when e.g. luci-mod-admin-full is not installed.
