Fixes uoregon-libraries/sb-dspace7-rest#13

Description

Previously, the 'Filter by year' dropdown filter would only show the most recent year represented in the works. This fix fills in the years as expected (described below) between the earliest and latest years.

Expected year filling behavior based on updateStartsWithOptions() docstring:

In this implementation, it creates a list of years starting from the most recent item or the current year, going all the way back to the earliest date found on an item within this scope. The further back in time, the bigger the change in years become to avoid extremely long lists with a one-year difference. To determine the change in years, the config found under GlobalConfig.BrowseBy is used for this.
