Added a new column in datacenter/portActivities that allows specific activities to require ROBs. This checkbox can only be selected if the ROBs checkbox directly to the left of it is already checked. Upon selecting ROBs Required, user must Reset Master Data. API submission will now block Statement of Facts forms that lack ROBs for the associated activities.

To enable offline form validation user must send new forms to the vessels. To enable onboard validation user must run replication.

If a form is submitted and then after submission but before approval an activity has ROBs Required checked, upon loading the form there will be an error about that activity requiring an ROB and not having one. Adding an ROB value will clear the error.

For purposes of this validation, the required ROB value must be greater than zero.
