    Allow PIWorld and piusers to be deleted

    Nobody should be using the "PIWorld" PI Identity or the "piusers" PI Group. The most that we can do at the moment is disable them. It would be much better if we can just delete them and never look back.

    Add array sorting function to AF Analytics.

    This would also enable calculation of percentiles. Percentile calculation would also be possible if the user could use nested substitution parameters in array functions. For example: RecVals := RecordedValues('Attribute1', start, end) CountLowe...
