Essbase Drillthrough Reports

Added support for native Essbase drillthough reports featured in Essbase 19c and higher. In order to allow users to access native drillthrough reports defined on the server, this capability can be enabled in the AppliedOLAP.Dodeca.ExcelAddInForEssbase.dll.config file via the drillthroughMouseMode setting, as in the following example:

<!-- Mouse
      showInRibbon is not supported for drillthroughMouseMode, etc.

      When showInRibbon is not supported for a MouseMode, the showInTaskPane option
      dictates whether the corresponding ribbon button will be displayed.
-->
<drillthroughMouseMode showInTaskPane="true" defaultValue="true"/>

When a data cell or cells from one or more drillable regions is selected, the user may click the Drillthrough button (or double-click a bottom-level data cell) to perform a drillthrough or display the Drillthrough Browser if multiple reports are available. #2570
