GWW - Make a resource match by Work Zone obvious and align with WOTRACK

In Graphical Work Week there are background colours (turquoise) in the Resource View to indicate a match (or not) by craft and skill level. There is nothing to indicate whether there is a match by work zone.

There are four states, a match on the default work zone, a match by a secondary work zone, no match with a work zone where the resource references a work zone of the same work zone type, no match with a work zone where resource has no work zone at all or no work zone of the work zone type.

    - Add work zone column to both Work View (ASSIGNMENT.WORKZONE) and Resource View (LABORWORKZONE, AMCREWWORKZONE where DEFAULTZONE=1)
    - Option on GWW to "Highlight Work Zones"
    - When selecting an assignment in work view, then currently highlight in turquoise based on Craft or Craft/Skill - Highlight Work Zone = 0.
    - When selecting an assignment in work view, then Highlight Work Zone = 1, highlight in turquoise based on Craft or Craft/Skill being a match and dark turquoise labor/crew default work zone matches assignment, or lighter turquoise labor/crew has work zone but it is not their default.
    - Provide warnings when assigning to a labor or crew where the work zone is not a match or would not appear in Available Labor or Available Crews.
    - If accept warning then assignment should be highlighted in Yellow text and red bar and tooltip (like skill mismatch) until Refresh Work Orders is used.

    Other ways of designing this, except this may be confusing as resource columns are already highlighted.
