Make eca:update available through the UI

Problem/Motivation

With our educational project, we develop locally and then use Git to push up codebase changes, issuing Drupal database updates via the Drupal UI of the Admin menu as and when required.

Given that one of the fundamental principles underpinning ECA, is that it is a no-code solution to empower 'site builders', should we consider providing a Ui menu operation for each ECA model so that that site builders can opt to update each one-by-one and also (perhaps) a tab that provides an 'Update all models' option.

Many shard hosting users may not have access to drush on a remote CLI and so my not be able to update their ECA models.

    My I also add here that I think the UI model update 'page' should:,/p>

    1. Detail each ECA model that is in need of updating.
      (with a bit of a preamble to say something like "Some ECA models need updating...")
    2. Provide blow-by-blow feedback on each model and in what way each model was updated.
    3. Be nice a clear with a summary statement at the end as to how many were updated and with/without any errors or warnings along the way.

    Thanks!

    That's ambitious, but makes total sense.
