Function to Identify User Running Workflow for Controls & Governance

Create a function in the Formula tool to pull Customer Managed Telemetry data like User ID, Job ID, and Start and End Runtime when running the workflow, instead of navigating to the Jobs tab separately and forgo matching the Job ID.

I'm happy to see there is now a DateTimeNowPrecise function, but you still have to convert this to a datetime with a DateTime tool, then get the min and max of this field to determine runtime.

@jkv0019 I really like this idea, this is something I would have loved to have in my audit days to more easily document and govern the use of the workflows.
