Public bug reported:

There are two boolean configuration values that enable substitution of
data source objects for custom urls or uuids in configs, args, and
params when jobs are submitted:

* edp.substitute_data_source_for_name  -- substitute data source objects
for urls of the form datasource://name

* edp.substitute_data_source_for_uuid -- substitute data source objects
for strings identified as uuids by oslo_utils.uuidutils.is_uuid_like()

It would be nice if users could simply check a box to set these configs.
Currently, a user must add these configs on the configure tab by hand.

Both values could be set by a single toggle, or an overall toggle with
subtoggles could be used (one toggle to set both, and individual toggles
for each). Probably a single toggle to set both is adequate -- the edge
case will be when a user wants to pass a literal uuid as an argument to
a job, or even less likely a "datasource://name" string.  If a user
really wants to set only one or the other, the toggle can be turned off
and the config value can be added by hand (manual config values should
supersede the toggle).

The label on a single box can be something like "Reference datasources
by name or uuid".

Default should probably be True.
