[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Validation errors preventing migration of data to ArchivesSpace

[Nathan Stevens]

Also, the option
<https://docs.google.com/a/nyu.edu/document/d/1Uj2qKtSKLGMm1VPDmDtuNG4eL8zgAJNhOHc93j0S7TE/pub>
to specify no refids is "-refid_none", not "refid_none" (notice the "-"),
so this will likely cause the errors you seeing since the migration plugin
will just use the default setting of generating random ref_ids if it
doesn't understand the option.
