Update Datasource Definition status when scanning (Vulnerability Assessment)

Currently the datasource definitions status indicator is only updated if a manual test is performed on that page.
If a Datasource is no longer available (for whatever reason), the datasource definitions page will continue to show the status with a green check mark, until a manual test is performed.

When a scan is performed and results with a failure to connect (networking, username/password change, or other reason), update the Datasource definitions page with the current status.

    There is a discrepancy between test connection and the account actually having the permissions to perform the scan. Consider incorporating permissions checks to the test as well?

    IMO... the datasource status is misleading. Addressing this would make the user experience much better.
