Update workitems of "skipped" releases about workitemupdater

[BlueBasher]

Need to investigate how to determine what the previous release Id was and what Api to use to query the WorkItems associated since that release.
Any help with this investigation would be appreciated @DeluxZ ;)

I think you should be able to get the previous release id while iterating through the list of releases. I guess a filter on status is a good idea and expand the environments. In the environments look for the environment name which triggers the work item updater task and check the status field till the first with status == succeeded and use the id of the release in the next API call.

The compare button in VSTS does a call to https://{account}.vsrm.visualstudio.com/{project}/_apis/Release/releases/{currentReleaseId}/workitems?baseReleaseId={releaseIdToCheck}&$top=250 (API is not documented..) which results in a list of workitem ids.

It took some time but... finally there's now an option to include the workitems from 'skipped' releases.
This is implemented in #33
