Added formatted textfield capabilities.

The Overactive Renderer has been enchanced to support formatted textfields by producing JFormattedTextField components with specific mask formats.

The formats supported are String, Integer, Time, Float, Short, Double, Long, Byte, Currency, Phone and Character.

During the past few weeks I implemented the necesary changes in Overactive Logistics to make use of this feature.

Here are some screenshoots showing the Phone and Time formats.
