HydroServer Redesign Part 21


**** Summary ****
 - Fix for WDC-1416 - Revise server-side checks for separation of metadata and data uploads

 - Introduce a 'ValidationQualifier' property in the validator class to characterize the current process - meta_data or data_values
 - In validation processing refer to qualifier value to a.) exclude data values from metadata uploads and b.) exclude metadata from data values uploads

 NOTE: The current implementation uploads each file prior to separation processing.  If, for example, the user includes a very large data values file as in a metadata upload, the uploader will require a second upload of the file during data values upload


**** HydroServerTools/Controllers/api ****
 - RevisedUploadController.cs 
   - class DebugData - add property: validationQualifier  
   - method Post() 
     - Add logic to retrieve 'validationQualifier' from submitted form 
     - Add validationQualifier argument to ValidateFileContentsAsync(...) call
   - method ValidateFileContentsAsync(...) 
     - Assign validationQualifier argument to validator's ValidationQualifier property

**** HydroServerTools/Validators ****
 - CsvValidator.cs
   - Add property: ValidationQualifier
   - method ValidateFileContents() 
     - Add logic to reference property value during validation processing


**** HydroServerTools/Views/CSVUpload ****
 - DragAndDropFiles.cshtml
   - remove some commented out code, update some comments
   - jQuery File Upload configuration:
     - include 'validationQualifier' (as valued on server during page build) in submitted form data
 - SelectUploadType.cshtml
  - $(document).ready(...) 
    - Increase setTimeout delay to 500 milliseconds for smoother screen transitions...
 - ValidateFiles.cshtml
   - function buildValidationResultsMarkup(...) 
     - Revise markup creation logic to recognize the following validation errors:
       - DataValuesSubmittedAsMetadata 
       - MetadataSubmittedAsDataValues
