New import option - Remove surplus objects

Done under JIRA issue [HDC-2331] - Remove surplus objects during Import

New import option Remove Surplus Objects is available for HDRep and FI2 import types.
This option is to be used for update purpose. If checked then user can select classes in field Classes to clean.

Remove surplus objects option removes objects that are linked to imported/mapped object but are not part of imported package.
Remove surplus objects option applies only to objects that are not in imported package, but are present in the database before import and are linked to matched imported or import configuration context objects.
Classes to clean indicates classes which objects are to be searched for surplus objects. If surplus object is found, it's link will be removed. Afterwards, if object has no links, it will be removed along with it's content.

General changes

• Source class and Target class fields functionality in presentation filter's definition were switched: 
  
  
• Target class -  now this field is the primary field defining Presentation - it is a class from which data we want to show (this field is required).
• Source class - is now optional field that if selected requires also choosing Perspective set.

• Presentations using Perspectives sets and Source class can now be of Standard and By Class type.

New option for presentations

When creating new or editing existing presentation, administrator can now define which summary columns will be displayed when presentation is applied.

• Count - when this is turned on, column count will be visible showing number of objects fulfilling each filter's requirements (defined by HQL).
• Spot area - Shows area of all spots for each filter. This field exclude using custom column summary.
• Custom summary - this unlocks Custom label and Summary sufix label fields. Turns off Spot Area option.
  • Custom label - name of custom column
  • Summary sufix - custom "units" for summary of presentation custom column. 

New option for filters

• Summary field - when Custom summary option is turned on then this option will be visible. Custom column will show data from Summary field for each filter.

• Fields scroll menu helps to choose target's class field, click to unlock fields list, choose field and click on Add Field button.
