Journal / Log for Devices (or maybe other Models as well) #151

Description

@peelman

#122 made me think of a situation I ran into when working on an Asset Management system that never got the green light to go open source at a previous gig.

It was requested (and eventually halfway implemented) that I add a Log/Journal/Comments section to each [Item]. This allowed for Human-stamped and Time-Stamped entries to denote maintenance, firmware/software updates, part replacements, or other changes, without having to edit a notes field continuously with something like:

6/30/2016 NP Updated Firmware to version R15.3

The intention was to ease use, enforce consistency (at least in where to make the comment), and safeguard any existing note data that might get wiped out by a select-all-start-typing-without-noticing mishap. The roadmap was to enable those log/journal/comment entires to be created by users of varying roles, whereas somebody might not have permissions to edit the object itself, but could add a note saying what they did to it.
