Neil McErlean 8e9c4f3aa5 RenditionService JS API.
Support for creating a RenditionDefinition from within JavaScript
Support for executing such an ad hoc rendition definition.
ScriptRendtionService now accepts long-form or short-form QNames where applicable.
Replaced "rendering actions" with "rendition definitions" in some javadoc and some private or local variable names.
