A lot of weird bugs come from the Expando API when it is not called from a regular portal thread (ie spawn a thread that does a job that has Expando in it) because it relies on CompanyThreadLocal.getCompanyId to namespace the tables, columns, rows, and values.

Modified the API to add company id explicitly.

A temporary workaround is to set the CompanyThreadLocal before calling an Expando API and then resetting it.

Deprecated a few of the very often used API calls to not take in a company id (default to the old way), but this will be removed in the future as it is inherently unsafe.
