This PR migrates the use of `DatasourceApi` to `DatasourceWithBackend`,
with this a couple additional improvements were made:
1. Migrate to use `interpolateVariablesInQuery` everywhere instead of
the custom `replaceTemplateVariables` we were using
2. Moves util functions out of `datasource.ts` and into the existing
`utils.ts`

Now we can see the `query` calls being made to the backend:

/>
Tested:
- By running queries from Explore and Dashboards (with and without
variables)
- By interacting with all the different Editors to make sure `ComboBox`
was working as expected
Next:
Once this is merged, we will next be able to slowly move away from using
the `ZabbixConnector` to make backend datasource calls.
