Add support for epic dependencies

Problem to solve

As a User of Epics,

I need to be able to map related and blocking Epics,

So that I can plan proper sequencing of work

Intended users

Should be included in Ultimate

Further details

Proposal

Bring the same "Related To" functionality we have for Issues (that were expanded via #2035 (closed)), to Epics.

Screen_Shot_2019-11-08_at_3.27.11_PM

Epics can be mapped to other Epics as:

  • Related To
  • Blocks
  • Blocking

Documentation

Need to update Epics Docs to reflect the new functionality

Availability & Testing

What does success look like, and how can we measure that?

Usage tracking requirements:

  • Number of Epic relations created
