	    tv: Allow table viewer to display refs, ports and small
	    binaries</p>
          <p>
	    Table viewer displayed #Port, #Ref, or #Bin as place
	    holders for their respective object types in ets and
	    mnesia tables. This can make table viewer difficult to
	    use when viewing tables containing those data types. It
	    doesn't make sense to render large binaries so #Bin will
	    still be used for binaries that exceed 100 bytes. (Thanks
	    to Blaine whittle)</p>
