FLUID-5202: In composite panels, subpanel's dropdown's model binding not working

Description

In composite panels, a subpanel's dropdown's model binding is not working: It's not mapping to composite panel's model properly. I discovered this issue while implementing some composite panels in order to document the process. The code that illustrates the issue can be seen in my branch:
https://github.com/acheetham/infusion/tree/PFID

To reproduce the issue:
1) Check out the branch
2) Open src/instructionalDemos/framework/preferences/compositeSchemas/index.html in your browser, watching the console
3) Open the sliding panel.

There are two drop-downs in Composite Panel #2. The primary schema for these two dropdowns defines a default that is NOT the first item in the list, but the two dropdowns default to the first item.

The enactors for the preferences merely log the new model whenever the model changes. If you watch the console when the page loads, you'll see the enactor logs indicating that the enactors are initialized with the defaults specified in the primary schema.

The preferences editor instantiated in the demo is stored in a global variable called "prefsEd" so in the console, you can examine the content of the various models to see where the default has been properly set, and where it has not.

  I've tested Justin's branch for FLUID-5201, which fixes the slider rendering, and now this problem (i.e. the controls not reflecting the defaults) is showing up for the slider, as well. Also, the range information in the primary schema is not being applied to the rendered component, either.

  There are two issues at play here. 1) the initial model value is not set for the sub panels 2) the selection renderer tree components do not have their valuebinding rebased.

  I have fixes to both of the underlying issues mentioned in the previous comment in my FLUID-5202 branch.

  I've tested Justin's FLUID-5200 branch in my branch, where I initially noticed the problems:
  https://github.com/acheetham/infusion/tree/PFID
  The drop-downs are now correctly being initialized to the default values, but the sliders are still not getting the default or the range values. It's possible this may be related to FLUID-5203, but the problem occurs even when there is only one slider in the panel.

  Yes that will be addressed with the wok for FLUID-5203
