Script to find the campaign extensions and shared lists used by a chosen template campaign, and apply them to all other campaigns.
/**

* Extension and List Copying
*
* This script takes the ad extensions, shared campaign negative lists and excluded
* placement lists applied to one template campaign and applies them to all other
* campaigns that match the filters. Campaigns are then labelled.
