public Entity save()

 create or update a group.  Note this will not rename a group at this time (might in future)
 
 This is a static method since setters to Group objects persist to the DB
 
 Steps:
 
 1. Find the group by groupNameToEdit
 2. Internally set all the fields of the stem (no need to reset if already the same)
 3. Store the group (insert or update) if needed
 4. Return the group object
 
 This runs in a tx so that if part of it fails the whole thing fails, and potentially the outer
 transaction too
 

Returns:

the group

Throws:

StemNotFoundException

InsufficientPrivilegeException

StemAddException

GroupModifyException

GroupNotFoundException

GroupAddException
