GET Codebooks/Question/{QuestionKey}?tree={tree}

Get the Codebook for a Question
Each Question has exactly one Codebook, which may be shared across multiple Questions.
A Codebook is tree-structured, where the leaf nodes are Codes and non-leaf nodes are Nets. Only Codes may be used to code a Response.
