Scripted REST API Resource with hard-coded sys_ids

Impact
Hard coding sys_ids makes the system more difficult to manage, and less able to move functionality between instances.
Remediation
Create a system property to store the name of the record (not the sys_id) for easier manageability. The script can use gs.getProperty() to retrieve the record and use the sys_id. If the named record was not found, an error can be displayed appropriately.
