Description

### Current Behavior

With 4.7, support for parent-child-relationships of projects was added (#84).

In addition to projects, we want to support the same kind of relationships for components as well.

Currently, component hierarchies as defined by the BOMs uploaded to DT are flattened

### Proposed Behavior

* Maintain component hierarchies when ingesting BOMs
* Add UI metaphors similar to those currently used for projects to display those hierarchies
