Fix for ALF-5373 Renditions being generated to the same location (e.g. through use of paths/templates) can lead to incorrect renditions/exceptions.

Added new policy to aspect rn:rendition. Rendition nodes, before deletion, have their non-primary parent assocs removed.  Otherwise the deletion of rendition nodes (which just moves them to the archive store) means that renditionService.getRenditions() returns those deleted assocs.
     Enabled HTMLRenderingEngineTest.testImagesSameFolder test case. Changed it slightly so that it deletes renditions/extracted images between test runs to prevent unwanted overwriting of renditions
     Enabled RenditionServiceIntegrationTest.testRenditionPlacements test case. Fixed the test path to point to /.../filename.txt as it should.
           Rewrote the end of the test to cover the cases where a rendition is attempting to overwrite another.
     Refactoring: renamed numerous private variables to aid readability
     Changes to RenditionNodeManager. If:
           a rendition is to an existing node that is not a rendition OR
           a rendition is to an existing rendition node whose source is not the same as the current one OR
           a rendition is to an existing rendition node whose renditionDef's name has changed
     Then throw an exception. We explicitly disallow these use cases now. We may support them in the future with a "forceOverwrite" option somewhere.
     StandardRenditionLocationResolverImpl now uses a RepositoryHelper to locate CompanyHome rather than a Lucene search
     Extensive debug logging added to the service.
     Added some javadoc
