Allow copy/pasting log files and channel groups #64

[x] This contribution adheres to CONTRIBUTING.md.

What does this Pull Request accomplish?

Allow copy/pasting the log file and channel groups sections of the custom device in System Explorer.

Why should this Pull Request be merged?

This makes it easier to duplicate existing log configurations.

What testing has been done?

Hand testing in VeriStand. Confirmed I could duplicate both log files and channel groups, and that the resulting system definition still logged data correctly on Windows.

@buckd @Karl-G1 it may be worth a quick investigation to see if other custom devices could benefit from a similar change. Depending on how properties in the system definition are stored, this may not work for all custom devices.
