URI DataReference to support substitution variables

The URI DataReference cannot use substitution variables, and thus if you have 1000 URI attributes to refer to a Coresight display, you need to specify your Coresight server 1000 times. Having that URI (or other parts) in another attribute would be helpful. Currently i use the stringbuilder for that reason, as the URI builder does not support this.

    We currently do not have plans to further develop the URI Builder Data Reference. Our recommendation is to use the StringBuilder Data Reference.

    The URI Builder data reference supports substituting attribute values (with the '' syntax) or substitution parameters (with the %% syntax). URI builder automatically escapes URI parameters so to specify your host in another attribute you would assign an attribute \Config|CoresightHost the value of: "coresighthost.company.com", then create a URI builder with configuration: https://'\Config|CoresightHost'/Coresight/Displays/'display number' We could add special handling for Coresight servers, but templating the host name is possible currently.
