/**
   Grid represents a data grid that has a header, body and an optional footer.

   By default, a Grid treats each model in a collection as a row, and each
   attribute in a model as a column. To render a grid you must provide a list of
   column metadata and a collection to the Grid constructor. Just like any
   Backbone.View class, the grid is rendered as a DOM node fragment when you
   call render().

       var grid = Backgrid.Grid({
         columns: [{ name: "id", label: "ID", type: "string" },
          // ...
         ],
         collections: books
       });

       $("#table-container").append(grid.render().el);

   Optionally, if you want to customize the rendering of the grid's header and
   footer, you may choose to extend Backgrid.Header and Backgrid.Footer, and
   then supply that class or an instance of that class to the Grid constructor.
   See the documentation for Header and Footer for further details.

       var grid = Backgrid.Grid({
         columns: [{ name: "id", label: "ID", type: "string" }],
         collections: books,
         header: Backgrid.Header.extend({
              //...
         }),
         footer: Backgrid.Paginator
       });

   Finally, if you want to override how the rows are rendered in the table body,
   you can supply a Body subclass as the `body` attribute that uses a different
   Row class.

   @class Backgrid.Grid
   @extends Backbone.View
