[Building Sakai] Citations and SAK-22422

[Jim Eng]

I have checked in most of the stuff for SAK-22083, but I now have a long list of minor details to deal with.  My check-in changes the main page for the citations helper so the dialog for creating a new citation list is mostly on a single page.  Most of my testing has involved "import" and a particular instance of the new-style search-vendor interface. I hope to be done with all the details by close-of-business (EDT) Thursday. 

Thanks for your patience, Adrian.

Jim

When a file is picked from resources, as opposed to imported from EndNote or Google Scholar I'm setting the preferred url to be the access url of the resource and I've made so that if the resource has a preferred url that overrides the openurl generated for that item. In the case of a resource from resources the openurl sucks anyway as it doesn't have enough metadata for worldcat to make sense of, so that's probably okay in the case of a resource.
