User defined tables

I am dropping the table type field from the form for the crTableDU command (and dropping the crDU command).

I am also planning a crTable command, where you specify which table du to use.

The scenario for custom tables then, will go something like this...

1. go to the DescriptorUnits drawer
2. do a crTableDU
3. go to the columns table in the newly created table du.
4. use the addRow command to add columns.
5. go to the topic or LSec where you want to create the table.
6. do a crTable and specify the table du which you just created.
7. use the addRow command to populate the table.

Of course, table du's are reusable--not every table has a unique set of columns.
