[webservices] counting stages

[Philip Crotwell]

And just to make sure I understand, in fdsnstationxml, there should never
be a <ResponseStage> with number="0", correct? In the old seisFile, I had
code that would check for a stage zero for overall sensitivity, but I think
that should no longer be needed.
