Remove the 'version number'-text in PW links

When creating a link to a document through a ProjectWise Web Connection, the link-text includes the version of the document, at the time when the link was created. For example: 'Filename (Version: xx.zz)'.

The issues is that the linked document can change version number. This is confusing for both the users who creates the links, as they think that they are only linking to a specifik version, when in fact they want to link to the current version. And it is confusing for those who use the links, as they think they will be guided to the document with that specifik version number.
Most of the time the document will have change its version number, so the document does not match the link-text.

Proposed solution: Remove the version-text from the link for all current versions of a document, and only have the version-text in the link if the document is a previous version.
