Convert should allow to override UOM

The introduction of the property "Delta UOM", made clear that when an incorrect UOM is set for an analysis result, there is no way (except casting to text and back to number) to change the UOM to a UOM of a different class. We need the convert fun...

PI System Explorer Define Table tab should add new rows below the working row, rather than above

List attribute names on trend in PI System Explorer be vertical
