[Bug 1021733] [NEW] Complete the Additional Drivers implementation

Public bug reported:

I've started implementing the design in
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareAndUpdatesSettings#drivers ; devices can
be listed on systems that require binary drivers, and the new tab is
there with the basic UI bits.

What's left to be done:
 - hook up signals for Apply
  - Might be more efficiently done as two steps: when selections change, list the changes, then apply the list of changed packages as a batch in Apply.
 - Remove the Revert button and make sure the "window" Revert button works (hook up signals to revert changes, clear cache, etc.)
 - Add the progress bar when Apply is running, replacing the "No proprietary..." label.
 - Testing, testing, testing.
