Expected behavior: Subflow is called normally

Minimal steps to reproduce the problem (not required if feature enhancement): See attached file (subflow.json) subflow.json.txt

What is the motivation / use case for changing the behavior? N/A Please tell us about your environment (Operating system, docker version, browser & verison if webui, etc):

Flogo version (CLI & contrib/lib. If unknown, leave empty or state unknown): 0.X.X Latest version of Flogo 0.5.4 Additional information you deem important (e.g. issue happens only occasionally):
