Briefcase CLI for pushing update to form definition forces version update in the form definition even for simple media updates #857

Briefcase CLI for pushing update to form definition forces version update in the form definition even for simple media updates.

Briefcase CLI takes too long and is also finiky for Version update even when there is purely media update. For simple media updates, CLI works for few hours but after that it fails until I update the version of the form in form definition. This constraint goes away when I upload the form directly into Aggregate GUI using .../formupload feature.

Need your feedback to get this underway.

thanks
