tv: Allow table viewer to display refs, ports and small binaries

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.
