A feature to display text in Module Explorer from specific attributes.

As a user, I would like Doors to display requirement ID like REQ-XXX-0001 in the Module Explorer instead of Object Heading & Object Text. It is because we have special format of requirement id, which is easy to identify the requirement.

RPE (Publishing engine) is delivered with an integrated standard JRE and JAVA hasn´t installed separately - for doors its still needed, even when you have installed RPE

Increase the scope of DBE get() function in DXL beyond its current 999 character limit
