Allow some IF checking for TagPath to see if it exists or has a value before putting it on an Event Frame Attribute.

It would be useful to be able to add tags to Event Frame Attributes that only exist or have a value. This came up with a request to merge Batch and A&E so that Alarm Tags made by the A&E interface can be added to Event Frames made by the B...
