Added: "Apply document edit and xref sharing" action to group-manage page which can be used to make edits and reverse xrefs appear correctly after changing the "Share Document Edits" or "Share Xrefs With Target" group properties or moving an XRef target document to another group.

Projects that require edits/xrefs not to be shared should set these properties to false. The "Apply document edit and xref sharing" action will need to be run on groups that wish to use the new defaults on existing documents.
