Rule: An item is deleted

Hi Lori,

An interesting question that triggered a try-out from my side.
Spoiler: It's running before!

This is what I did:

• Create a test entity with one property "name"
• Add webservices with the UPDATE operation (and add a service container to support it)
• Add the deletion Rule with no condition starting a BPM
• The BPM does the UPDATE operation via the rootEntityInstanceId setting the name with "Set before delete!"
• Add the History BB to prove the outcome (with retaining the data after deletion!)
• Publish it all, create an instance, and delete it.
• Now have a look in the database (Postgres in my case) for the result: SELECT s_audit_id, convert_from(s_history_data, 'UTF8') from o2aw_tipsprj_generichistoryloglist;
