Backfilling % complete should be based on time, not number of analyses

Currently, the "% complete" bar for backfilling analyses is based on the number of analyses that are done backfilling. For example, if you are backfilling 4 analyses, the bar only ever updates 4 times: 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%. These big gaps between updates are not useful if you are backfilling few, but slow, analyses. It also makes it difficult to judge how slow an analysis is without sitting and waiting for the first update. To provide more granularity, consider basing the bar on time. For example, if I am backfilling 3 weeks of data for 4 analyses, then the bar should show the % of the 12 weeks that is done backfilling.

    Unfortunately there's no reliable way for us to do that since we queue analyses for backfilling in chunks and may perform them across multiple threads. The effort to implement this does not justify the benefit that it would bring.
