Draft content is returned from entries

[rpastorelle]

Consider the following:

• ModelA contains optional link to resource of type ModelB
• nyancat is of type ModelA and contains DRAFT content of type ModelB

When we fetch the content, we get some metadata in return:

res = client.entries({"content_type": "nyancat"})
content = res[0]
print content.signup

We see this output in reference to the draft content:

{u'sys': {u'linkType': u'Entry', u'type': u'Link', u'id': u'75fmVQxvWvm4UqCOyMR163'}}

For published content, I'd except to see:

<Entry[modelB] id='Xx9XxXnxx9xX99X9xxX9x9'>

Since draft content is not published, this should operate as if the content does not exist.

---

Draft content should not be returned from the Content Delivery API

Ref: https://www.contentful.com/developers/docs/tutorials/general/determine-entry-asset-state/

content.signup should be omitted altogether since it's in draft state

The problem this causes for me is that there is no way to determine if I should use fallback data.

My check for if content and content.fields().get("signup") should fail allowing me to properly set a default value.
However:

• content.fields().get('signup') exists
• and content.signup.fields() does not (since signup is a dict here)
