Dan 8c673c4fb6 BPMN.io -- Just show the message names not the ids - to assure we are only exposing the names.
SpiffWorkflow -
    - start_messages function should return message names, not ids.
    - don't catch external thrown messages within the same workflow process
    - add an expected value to the Correlation Property Model so we can use this well defined class as an external communication tool (rather than building an arbitrary dictionary)
    - Added a "get_awaiting_correlations" to an event, so we can get a list of the correlation properties related to the workflows currently defined correlation values.
    - workflows.waiting_events() function now returns the above awaiting correlations as the value on returned message events
 Backend
    - Dropping MessageModel and MessageCorrelationProperties - at least for now.  We don't need them to send / receive messages though we may eventually want to track the messages and correlations defined across the system - these things (which are ever changing) should not be directly connected to the Messages which may be in flux - and the cross relationships between the tables could cause unexpected and unceissary errors.  Commented out the caching logic so we can turn this back on later.
    - Slight improvement to API Errors
    - MessageInstances are no longer in a many-to-many relationship with Correlations - Each message instance has a unique set of message correlations specific to the instance.
    - Message Instances have users, and can be linked through a "counterpart_id" so you can see what send is connected to what recieve.
    - Message Correlations are connected to  recieving message instances.  It is not to a process instance, and not to a message model.  They now include the expected value and retrieval expression required to validate an incoming message.
    - A process instance is not connected to message correlations.
    - Message Instances are not always tied to a process instance (for example, a Send Message from an API)
    - API calls to create a message use the same logic as all other message catching code.
    - Make use of the new waiting_events() method to check for any new recieve messages in the workflow (much easier than
    churning through all of the tasks)
    - One giant mother of a migration.
