doubling of parent vector information in plasmids

When adding/editing plasmids, we are asked for "parent vector" AND "parent vector name". This is absurd: a single entry is needed.

changed milestone to %v2.1

added bug label

assigned to @gyvert

In addition, if we enter a string in "parent vector" instead of an integer, we get a 500 error. Users are not informed that they should enter the id of the parental plasmid here. This is confusing.

For now, we can simply uncheck the parent_vector field in the plasmids' BREAD. I prefer not deleting (via migrations) the column in the database because some labs may then lose data during upgrades if they used this field.
