[Chameleon] result_fields setting for query/identify

[Paul Spencer]

Note that SHAPE_INDEX, TILE_INDEX, and LAYER_INDEX are not affected by 
this, Chameleon adds them to the query results.

We really need to add a way of controlling query results in the default 
query results dialog, metadata seems reasonable (perhaps a new attribute 
on the query widget to indicate the name of a metadata field that 
contains the field names would be the right thing to do?)

This won't happen in the near future. However, if someone (initials 
Tyler Mitchell) could file an enhancement bug for this, I will hopefully 
get to it for the next version

Cheers

Paul
