Without this the uid will not be sent to the backend when saving a
dashboard.
#7883

Since we're already have possibility to get a dashboard by slug
it makes little sense to have a separate endpoint in api for
retrieving uid by slug.
#7883

Use shortid.MustGenerate() instead of shortid.Generate(). Instead
of returning errors it will panic.

#7883

Introduces new url in api /dashboards/<uid> for fetching dashboard by unique id
Leave the old dashboard by slug url /dashboards/db/<slug> for backward
compatibility and for supporting fallback
WIP for #7883

Make the max length of uid longer in case we want to change it later
#7883
