Add a criteria to also display to computers without %JSS_INVENTORY_NAME% already installed.

Thanks for the suggestion @MScottBlake.

The reason it is not configured that way is that not everyone who is a member of the testing group has access to all of the available software at our institution. Logic, for example, we only have a handful of licenses for. So our access control is predicated on whether they have the software to begin with.

That doesn't mean that the way I'm doing it is the best way... Let me think about this. I like this change, but need to think through the implications.

What I'm doing is just making an override of each recipe and pointing it to my modified SmartGroupTemplate.xml file, which works well enough, but this criteria seems like a more sane default rather than an exception.
