Add Use Defaut Value booleans to API GETs' responses

[alhuet]

Summary

In a Multi-Storeview context, a specific Storeview of a Product may have values inherited from the "All" Storeview for certain fields if the "Use Default Value" checkbox is checked (for example, the "Visibility", "Set Product as New From", "Country of Manufacture", or "Product Name" fields).

Using the API, there is no way to find which field is "Use Default Value" true and which is not. This is very inconvenient, especially when writing data on an existing product.

Many developers seem to have developed custom scripts to add on top of Magento, or complex verifications with several requests on the same page to identify them based on the software's behaviors. But it would be much better to simply get it from the API, avoiding days of work and maintenance on complex workarounds, and latencies on the Magento instance as a cost for these workarounds.

This is true for Products but also for all other items that have Use Default Values.
