Synthea Team Updates for BFD-458 (Test with Synthea Data)

[hadleynet]

Change Details

This PR updates the BFD-458-test-synthea-data-2 branch to account for all the RIF files that the Synthea bb-export branch outputs.

In order for these changes to function, the environment needs to have a set a SYNTHEA_OUTPUT_DIR environment variable that points to the Synthea RIF files. If Synthea is configured to export RIF, these files will be in {path}/synthea/output/bfd, but your testing environment could also have a static synthetic dataset stashed somewhere (or none at all), hence the environment variable.

Acceptance Validation

Given a set of synthetic RIF files, do the integration tests successfully pass for the bfd-pipeline-rif-load and bfd-server-war projects?

Feedback Requested

Changes to make, if necessary.
