[hyades-dev] Updates to CBE

[Jason Cornpropst <jhcornpr@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Here are proposed updates to the CBE
object in the org.eclipse.hyades.logging.events package. There are 2 main
changes.
1- The data in IExtendedDataElements
is now typed. Instead of returning String the data is returned as the native
types. If the wrong get or set method is called a runime exception is thrown.
There are also now numeric values assigned to the different datatypes so
that the a case statement can be used when processing extended data elements.
There is one possible issue with backward compatability. The data type
must be set before setting the data value otherwise a runtime exception
is thrown.
2 - Method in ICommonBaseEvent and ExtendedDataElement
to return the datetime format as a long representing milliseconds so that
a java date object can be created. The parsing method is located in CbeFormatter.
