CVVU.FindStringItems Method

This is a much more efficient way of determining if items in one VV are found in a second, than by searching repeatedly in a loop. The returned <define>GS_LONG</define> VV contains the same number of items as the "search items" VV, and contains -1 for items where the value is not found, and the index of items that are found. Comparisons are case-tolerant. Non-string VVs are converted to string type VVs (element size 24) internally. The method requires that the VV items be sorted, and will do so internally. Since the input VVs may already be sorted, the method will run faster if this stage can be skipped.
