various other bug fixes

Fixed bug regarding boolean values sent within a workflow (workflow components always retrieved 'false' even the previous component sent 'true')
Added support for workflow control from within scripts executed with the Script component again
GUI misc: mark GUI elements red if validation error exists (instead of yellow which is meant for validation warnings)
internal: added example workflow components demonstrating how to develop a RCE workflow component

Added support for remote upload of large files
Unified data types of input values and output values which are used by workflow components (Note: all workflow files created with RCE < 3.0.0 will be updated by RCE when opening them for the first time)
Replace the Python workflow component with a more generic Script workflow component which supports still Python and and latterly also Jython
Added check if two RCE instances are compatible to each other (connection between them will be refused if not compatible)
Added support for maximum iteration count in Converger workflow component
Reduced messages exchanged during workflow run
Improved GUI
- added icon in workflow runtime tab, which shows the current state of a workflow
- Fixed memory leak in tab showing the input values of running workflow components
- Reworked and improved most of the workflow component configuration GUIs
- Improved the workflow run editor: it only allows RCE nodes to be selected which has the workflow component with an exact matching version installed
- Added check for invalid connections: if data type of one connection's endpoint (input/output) is changed it will be checked now if it is compatible with the data type of the other endpoint
- Made the GUI in general more responsive even if long running (remote) operations are performed in the underlying backend
- More minor improvements
