Add iterations in the past

Problem to solve

When migrating from another product it may be useful to add historical data that is currently in progress, or just to move all the data over to keep it in a single location. For this to work Iterations need to support having dates in the past.

This is part of adding support for iteration cadences -- &5077 (comment 467401527)

Proposal

• allow iteration creation in the past if it does not overlap with existing iterations
