Local fix

Problem summary

• The getContentByWorkflowStage method was returning both content
  and content links, and hence we ran into the issues of trying to
  find a draftWorkspace for a ContentLink, with the uuid of the
  ContentLink and never could find it.
  

Problem conclusion

• 1. Have added a new method in the ContentServiceImpl which would
  take a uuid and return the correct workspace for the
  controllable. If it is a DraftSummary      of a ContentLink , it
  would return the draftWorkspaceName of the original content.
  This method was used in getImpl() of the ContentServiceImpl and
  also in    the WCMAPILibraryService.getLibraryByID().
  
  2. Changed the WCM_Workspace.getContentByWorkflowStage method to
  return only Content.
  
     The above change needed addition of two methods to the
  CoreQueires class, findContentDraftSummariesByWorkflowStage and
  findContentByWorkflowStage
  
     Also added a method queryDraftContentByWorkflowStage to the
  RepositoryXPathBuilder.
  
  3. Changed the getParentId() method of the ContentLink in the
  API , to retireve the parentId(). This was uncovered during
  fixing the real problem.
