Support move/rename of Attributes specified by path in Asset-based Calculation expressions

Currently, if an element or attribute is moved or renamed, any Asset-based Calculations in PI Vision with an expression that uses an AF path containing that element or attribute will return "No Data" as it is no longer be able to find that attribute.


e.g. Expression: 'Parent Element\Element1|SINUSOID'

Renaming Element1 to Element-1 will result in a value of "No Data".


This can be quite tedious to update each of the affected expressions in PI Vision manually. It would be ideal for PI Vision to be able to save the Attribute GUID of any attributes specified by path in the expression of Asset-based Calculations so that it can continue to reference it even if the attribute or its parent elements are moved or renamed, similar to how the Attribute and Element GUIDs used by PI Vision symbols are already handled to allow for moving and renaming.
