Description
The merlin status and merlin detailed-status commands simply do not do well at scale since we're handling thousands of status files. We need to change this functionality so that the status commands utilize Merlin's new database instead which should drastically improve query performance.
To accomplish this we need to:
- Add new data models and database commands
- Link new data models to existing functionality
- Refactor status classes
This issue will not be marked complete until all subtasks are finished.

Research direction
Start with the merlin status and merlin detailed-status command entry points, then inspect the existing status classes and Merlin's new database functionality. The work is complete when the data models and database commands are added, linked to existing functionality, and both status commands use the database for improved performance; all subtasks must be finished.
