Name of affected component: Core Reporting API

Name of related library and version, if applicable (e.g. Java, Python,
HTTP, Objective-C, etc.):

Issue summary:
The advanced segments IDs have been changed to alphanumerical IDs since July 
2013. This impacts many of our queries since we store the previous segment ID 
which used to be numerical.

Although this will continue to work for 6 months, we would need to map the old 
IDs to the new ones. Is there a way for us to find the new segment ID using the 
old numerical ID? For example, what would be the new segment ID for the segment 
#1794842974?

When you query the reporting API with the old segment, the API returns the new 
segment definition.

You can check to see if there is a difference and update accordingly.
