Allow ITX to handle Protobuf schemas

ITX currently can support AVRO schemas however there are other schemas that may be used depending on circumstances. One of these is the protobuf schema. Can this be added to the suite of schemas supported by ITX?

DateTime Functions should handle Epoch as well

We're receiving a message where the timestamps are in Epoch notation. ToDateTime and FromDateTime (and maybe other related functions) should be able to handle this so it can be treated and/or formatted in a human-readable format.

ITXA - Import mxl maps from SI into SPE

When importing a map from SI into SPE, only the .txo is successfully imported and not the .mxl. This idea would ensure that both the .txo and .xml are imported, and would avoid the manual step of having to separately upload the .mxl to the map in ...
