Metacat

Modify monitor() to accept new parameters for getOperationStatisics() (fromDate, toDate) instead of 'period'. Added getDateAsUTC() to parse incoming fromDate and toDate parameter strings.

Fixed problems in IdentifierManager asSystemMetadata(), getSystemMetadata(), and querySystemMetadata() that were using ObjectFormat.toString() rather than ObjectFormat.getFmtid().getValue(). Metacat was storing the string memory pointer rather than the actual format string in the systemmetadata table.
