Import RIS from Elsevier does not get journal name

[tagMacher]

JabRef version 3.8.2 on Ubuntu 16.04

This problem is also observed for versions 3.7, 3.8, and 3.8.1.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Export RIS for any journal article from ScienceDirect.com. Save file on local hard-disk.
2. Drag-drop RIS file onto JabRef window. This opens up the import dialog, Click ok after ensuring 'keep' checkbox for the article entry is selected.
3. Check the created entry for journal name - it is seen to be blank.

The RIS file created by ScienceDirect has a JO entry for journal name - this used to be correctly downloaded earlier. The last correctly working version is 3.6. Sample RIS file from ScienceDirect is enclosed (as ZIP archive) - RIS file can be seen in any text editor. Log pasted below.

@tschechlovdev Could you have a look? - Refs #2028
Maybe also @obraliar - Refs #817

[tschechlovdev]

I can confirm this issue. I'll handle this.

This should be fixed in the latest development version. Could you please check the build from http://builds.jabref.org/master/. Thanks!

Works fine. Looking forward to release version of 4.0! Thanks.
