Allow administrators to change which CONNECT tenant/Namespace of the agent

Provide a streamlined way to rename streams and push the changes to the endpoint

The current process forces the user to modify the adapter configuration (DataSource for the prefix, DataSelection for the stream name) and the endpoint (PIDA, OCS). The adapter should support modifying directly the stream name and push those chang...

Add ability to handle exception point type changes
