Added Identity stuff into the GUI.

- Generic Classes:
	- GxsIdChooser: gets a list of current OwnIds for user to select AuthorId.
	- GxsIdLabel: retrieves and displays Author Information.
	- GxsIdTreeWidgetItem: retrieves and displays Author Information, in specified column.
 - Added GxsIdChooser into GxsGroupDialog & CreateGxsForumMsg.
 - Added GxsIdTreeWidgetItem into Forum Thread listings.
