Embedded process ID is ignored

[jdidion]

I am trying to parse the following workflow, which was generated by cwlpack --json --add-ids. The parser ignores the ID of the wc3-tool process is ignored and instead substitutes the ID #count-lines19-wf.cwl/step1/null.

It looks like the problem is that IDs are parsed by UriLoader, which calls LoadingOptions.expandUrl, which mucks with things that have ":" in them. So I think we need to find a different delimiter for the auto-generated IDs.

Confirm that it works if I replace ':' with ';' in the auto-generated IDs. I'll close this and open an issue in cwlpack.
