/*
The following example shows how to upload a file to a sharepoint document library with metadata attached. 

The process must be done backwards by uploading the file first then retrieving it's item properties and
merging the new item metadata with the current item. 

***Gotchas***
You must first get the ListItemEntityTypeFullName and add it to your new items __metadata type field. This tells 
SharePoint what content type to use. 

When creating the item metadata include what fields you want to modify outside of the __metadata property. 

All fields with a space in the name need to be reformatted to use _x0020_ for the space. 
Eq 'Some Column' = Some_x0020_Column
