Execute an expression as a Workflow step.
180+
An ExpressionTool is a type of Process object that can be run by itself
181+
or as part of a Workflow step. It executes a pure Javascript expression
182+
that has access to the same input parameters as a workflow. It is meant
183+
to be used sparingly as a way to isolate complex javascript expressions
184+
that need to operate on input data and produce some result. No docker
185+
container is required or allowed.
