Task #850
Story #929: modify client-side resolve() implementations to match new architecture
modify R client to call the resolve() on CN to determine data location
100%
Description
Currently the R client assumed that it has a MN service endpoint and calls GET on that endpoint directly. Instead, need to have the only known service endpoint be the CN endpoint, and use the resolve() method to find the proper MNs to use for downloading the data and metadata objets.

R client now uses resolve() against the CN to locate the MN for an object, then downloads that object. However, there is some confusion about the format of the resolve() response described in ticket #884. Need to refactor the R client to use the new resolve() response when it is refactored.

Modified R-client to use the new resolve() response syntax as encoded in ObjectLocationList, so now the R client uses the baseUrl for the CN to find the proper location against which resolve() calls should be made. This completes this task, although the R client itself needs significantly more work to generalize it for robustness.
