commit da515ac06eec40f4424300659adc06e4f2baf5b7

    Fix TraversalParent implementations for Placeholder steps
    
    The TraversalParent methods were not consistently implemented in the new 
placeholder steps.
    This commit adds proper implementations in all TraversalParent placeholder 
steps, and introduces
    TraversalParentTest.
    
    TraversalParentTest takes traversals with TraversalParents and verifies 
that getGlobalChildren() and getLocalChildren()
    are producing the expected children, and that those children have correctly 
set their parents. These checks are done before
    and after strategy application. This is primarily intended for placeholder 
steps to ensure that TraversalParent remains
    correctly implemented in both placeholder and concrete steps, however it is 
also useful to verify against interference from
    strategies.
    
    The new tests identified an existing deficiency DateDiffStep which was also 
addressed
