Refactor Graph to allow simple binding
Graph should be binded to a single DataModel, but many Graph properties should be then be binded to a specific property of this DataModel:
-each series should be binded to a specific property (which would be a list). These properties would be the data.
-general Graph items like axis title should also be able to be binded to other properties, to allow more complex use. These properties would be the metadata.

As it is now, all the data are put in a single list (not developer friendly at all), and using metadata is impossible.

The Graph item is designed to be data-driven, which means its properties (series, titles, labels, etc.) should be defined by a raw data, processed in accordance with the defined groups, rather than binding it to a certain data model. We believe the used approach is more flexible, powerful and allows the user to provide data from different data sources instead of constructing an object hierarchy.
Additionally, we provide bindings for many graph properties, that are evaluated at run-time, which adds to the item extensibility.
