Loading foreign data using entity-engine.xml

[Ron Wheeler]

I have spent some time working on preparing some sample data for loading
Customers.
If this makes sense, I will add it to the docs as an example of
preparing external data for loading using the entity-engine.
It might also be a helpful addition to the demo data.

I have attached an image of the original spreadsheet with 14 sample
customer.

I have also created a drawing with GraphViz that shows the relationship
between all of the entities involved in getting the data loaded.
The entities in red boxes are provided by the seed data
The user data is found in boxes with an aliceblue background;

I have manually created the entity-engine-xml for the first 2 customers.

I would appreciate any feedback on accuracy or clarity of the example.

Two of the attachments seem to have fallen of the original e-mail.

That is because the mom has a limit regarding total attachment size
