REST-API In an Item query the metadata is exposed as one String rather than as 
discrete Xml elements

                 Key: DS-922
                 URL: https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-922
             Project: DSpace
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: REST API (experimental)
            Reporter: Robin Taylor


Class ItemEntity calls XHTMLHeadDisseminationCrosswalk to create the metadata 
XML. This crosswalk was written to add the metadata as a String in the <head> 
section of an html page and is probably not the correct crosswalk to use for 
the REST API. Below is a cut and pasted chunk from a REST API query which shows 
the metadata as a string containing escape characters.

<metadata>&lt;link rel="schema.DCTERMS" href="http://purl.org/dc/terms/"; 
/&gt;&lt;link rel="schema.DC" href="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/"; 
/&gt;&lt;meta name="DC.creator" content="dfgdgd, dfgdf"

We need to decide on a suitable format for exposing the metadata. Should we 
default to DC ? How should this then be exposed if the request specifies Json ?
