NEON Sample IDs should be moved from other identifiers to part identifiers

[Jegelewicz]

There are about 20K records with NEON Sample IDs.

These can also be found in the barcode labels for the parts to which they should be associated.

These other identifiers should be converted to part identifers for the appropriate parts.

@jldunnum @campmlc I'll work up the appropriate file for the part attribute loader

Are part identifiers still searchable under other ids? NEON uses these and we have queries for them based on those numbers.

They would not be - but you would just need to give them another search (by part ID rather than other ID).

[campmlc]

This is more complicated than that, as NEON is harvesting the GGBN resource published to VertNet, which I do not think includes part IDs. We need to keep sample ID as a distinct ID type, at least until all this can be resolved.
