   ### SUMMARY
   Adds a top-level dashboard loading indicator (originally opened as https://github.com/airbnb/incubator-superset/pull/143)
   
   Today, we show loading indicators overlaying each chart on the dashboard, but we don't show a top-level indicator for the full dashboard. This is problematic because the loading indicators are sometimes easy to miss (e.g., loading is happening in other dashboard sub-tabs, or loading indicator on chart has low-contrast).
   
   **Additional Background**:
   I use Superset heavily (on the Airbnb Human Team), and have been working with non-engs that use these dashboards frequently. I keep getting feedback on different perf-related issues, and I feel like it's eroding their trust in the data. 
   
   I'm throwing up this "central" loading indicator to make it clearer that no more "loading" is taking place on the dashboard, so they can hopefully have more confidence that the numbers are "ready". (Before this, they would toggle dashboard filters, and the chart-by-chart loading indicators would cause them to feel unsure whether the data is ready to be interpreted.)
