Add "Create Channel Writer" Option to Messenger Channel Tunnel Context Menu

Status: New

Currently, when right-clicking a Messenger channel tunnel in LabVIEW, the context menu only offers the option to create a channel reader. However, Messenger channels support multiple writers, so it would be both logical and convenient to include a "Create Channel Writer" option directly in the popup menu.

At present, users must manually insert an element of the channel wire’s type and then create a writer from its output—an unnecessarily cumbersome workaround for a simple task.

This seems like an oversight rather than a technical limitation, and adding this feature would streamline development and improve usability for anyone working with Messenger channels.
