Added advanced API get and put.  Tests should be in place too.
Stash commit
implemented the password hashing mechanism. The mechanism still needs to be switched on in Authenticator and the UserManager... the UserManager.makeEntity needs to be refactored so we can hash the password from the given JSON.
ADvanced Post
Added a UserDeserializer to use with the Gson library. It supports custom inflation of User JSON strings with one or more of the User fields -- the password field is never inflated but set to null. I also changed the User.matchPassword() such that it returns false if User.password is null.
added unit tests for the parsePassword functions.
added unit tests for the User deserializer. Found a bug in the idNum parsing, fixed that.
refactored UserManager.makeEntity and UserManage.update to utilize the new deserializer. Also added User.role to the deserialization because I missed it before
added logic to exclude the password field from JSON serialization. Part of this included tagging all fields of User aside from password with a "@Expose" annotation. Also had to add this annotation to AbstractModel's permissions map. Fixed a bug in UserDeserializer.parsePassword() where it could not handle JSON strings with field names as strings.
adding missing manifest
merged dev-core-feature-customserialize into dev-core. This branch improves the serialization and deserialization systems by using GSON custom serializers and built-in serialization controls. Modified the Admin Console (index.jsp) to use the correct serialized field name for idNum when sending a user to the API (id => idNum).
merged in dev-core-feature-passwordhash into dev-core. This enables SHA256 hashing on the User.password field. Hashing is performed in UserManager.makeEntity(). At this time, the password cannot be changed or updated once the user is created. Also, fixed a bug in UserManagerTest.testMakeEntity such that it uses assertTrue and the User.equals instead of the default assertEquals.

fixed some merge deletions that disabled password hashing and the improved UserManager.update(). Tests run successfully.
merge commit of dev-exemplar and dev-core. Set the SessionManagerTest's renew test to ignore since it is not yet used and causing problems. Also set the loginservlet tests to ignore because they depend on server state. Added an unimplemented method to the DefectManager. Fixed the admin user creation during ManagerLayer instatiation so that it uses a hardcoded JSON string. This should be changed in the future. Fixed a few tests to deal with initial DB state.
fixed character encoding issues with the Authenticator by enforcing UTF-8. We should probably do this globally, if possible. Migrated SessionTest to the Interfaces project because Session was moved there as well. Enabled Exposed annotation for GSON in Session because it serializes a user. This should be fixed once we refactor serialization. Also, fixed a few Authenticator test cases that were not hashing passwords.
Make jar-building projects refresh the workspace to avoid
out-of-sync errors and accidentally running the server without building
successfully.  Generally, mash Control+B until errors go away.
