Display UserValues contents on message property tab

UserValues are a property of every instance of EnsLib.EDI.Document objects (e.g. HL7 messages). They allow storing of e.g. Metadata alongside the message body containing the message payload. Setting of the UserValues property can be done from within a dtl or custom code. Once set the information can be used for a variety of scenarios e.g. message routing, retain original information from source message prior modification etc.). Unfortunatly the contents of the UserValues array can only be displayed when opening the message object in terminal - not directly from the "Text" tab in message viewer.

The idea is to display those UserValues on the messages teext tab in Visual trace/message viewer. It should be quite easy patching EnsPortal.Utils.cls to display those information.
