Support AttrSL and AttrNL functions in TM1 rules

It is unprescedented that attribute information functions of this type are supported only in TurboIntegrator and not in Rules. These functions should be supported in rules just like AttrS and AttrN.

This is required for any model where localized attributes are implemented. There is a laborious workaround to query the }LocalizedElementAttributes cube with DB() but this requires checking for empty valuie and if empty then return the standard AttrS.

e.g. we need this in rules

['Translated Caption'] = S: AttrSL( 'myDimension', !myDimension, 'Caption', 'de' );  

But in fact presently this needs to be coded which is ridiculous

['Translated Caption'] = S:

If( DB('}LocalizedElementAttributes_myDimension', !myDimension, 'de', 'Caption') @= '',

    AttrS( 'myDimension', !myDimension, 'Caption' ),

    DB('}LocalizedElementAttributes_myDimension', !myDimension, 'de', 'Caption')

);
