Change Revit.Application.Document to Document

Also, Rhythm has been refactored to work with all Document types as well (including Orchid).

The types are:

Revit.Application.Document (Dynamo internal type)
Autodesk.Revit.DB.Document (Internal Autodesk Database Type)

Here is a sample of how it is handled in the code with Rhythm:

johnpierson/RhythmForDynamo/blob/2e2bf0b81fadcd3380b2ad8517bac1f2b42130bd/src/RhythmRevit/RhythmRevit.SharedProject/Revit/Selection/Collector.cs#L69-L73


      
          if (document.GetType().ToString().Contains("Orchid"))
          {
              throw new Exception(
                  "Orchid has recently been updated to return Revit.Application.Document, please update your Orchid to use this node.");
          }

This was the result of a pretty cool collaboration with the author of Orchid and I:
