get_client_payment_method API Enhancement (DEV-4979)

Aria implemented a new get_client_payment_method API to send scheduled payment reminder emails to the client’s customers. These emails (up to a maximum of three) are typically sent to any account which has a specific payment type and an outstanding balance on a bill which is more than X days old (where X is the Days Until Payment Reminder value in the account's payment method). The daily batches are modified to check for accounts to which the emails must be sent, create the appropriate templates, and send the emails.

The Object Query API, get_account_details, has been modified to improve response time.
