Summary: Submission Forms don't preserve order of values

Initial Comment:
This bug occurs in 1.5.x XMLUI and JSPUI.

Essentially the Describe (metadata entry) page of the submission process 
doesn't preserve the order that values are entered in multi-valued fields.

This is especially problematic for Author names.  During a submission author 
names are reordered such that the *first* author listed is that *last* one that 
you enter during the submission process.

This patch modifies the org.dspace.submit.step.DescribeStep class (the 
processing class) in the dspace-api module, so that it will preserve the order 
in which values are entered.  This way the *first* author listed will always be 
the *first* author entered, etc.

This patch works for both the XMLUI and JSPUI since both of these interfaces 
utilize this same backend prorcessing class to save all values entered during 
the Describe step.

This patch was built off the latest code in the dspace-1_5_x branch of SVN (as 
of 2009-Jan-27).
