I've re-worked the workflow form endpoint, so that it only accepts the data that should be in the form, and ignores any other values that come back from the front end. It seems Formly has some bugs that were introducing confusing information, and I want everything to behave consistently.
I had to re-work some of the tests, which were relying on an ability to set data through a form post without having a corresponding form to do so.
To do so, I changed the WorkflowProcessor's reset method to be static, it will try to instantiate the current workflow and execute a cancel_notify event, but if that fails, it will continue and always return a new workflow processor using the latest spec.
a hard or soft reset, and an error is thrown trying to fulfil a cancel event, the reset should still fire.
Sending emails still had a number of issues correctly parsing it's arguments. This is corrected.
Add the lane information to the Task model.
Drop the foreign key constraint on the user_uid in the task log, as we might create tasks for users before they ever log into the system.
Add a new endpoint to the API called task events. It should be possible to query this and get a list of all tasks that need a users attention.
The task events returned include detailed information about the workflow and study as sub-models
Rename all the actions in event log to things that are easier to pass over the api as arguments, make this backwards compatible, updating existing names in the database via the migration.
Throughly test the navigation and task details as control of the workflow is passed between two lanes.
Adding checks in the API to assure the correct person is completeing a task based on the task's lane.
Adding lane to the Navigation item.
Adding a check to assure that unique user ids can be identified using task.data
Added some additional ldap entries to make testing and development easier.
Removed a big chunk of duplicate code from task_tests_api
Modified some of the helper functions to make it easier to test as specific users.
Added some additional bpmn models to the tests for testing lanes and roles.
Adds an optional 'value' parameter to the lookup endpoint so you can find a specific entry in the lookup table.
Makes sure the data attribute returned on a lookup model is a dictionary, and not a string.
Fixes a previous bug that would crop up if double spaces were used when performing a search.

In order to allow proper deletion of tasks, we no longer merge data returned from the front end, we set it directly as the task_data.
When returning data to the front end, we take any previous form submission and merge it into the current task data, allowing users to keep their previous submissions.
There is now an "extract_form_data" method that does it's best job to calculate what form data might have changed from the front end.
