REST plan stages
Plan stages belong to the plan templates and define the primary gateways an application has to pass through in order to be successfully deployed. While these often have the same names as BRPM environments, they are distinct in order to allow environments to be scaled (dev1, dev2, dev3) or temporarily borrowed and assigned to a differently named stage such as as when a QA environment is borrowed for work in the development stage for a diagnostic routine.
