0010300: Coprocessing plugin: No writer alert
When writing out coprocessor state, the resulting script will do basically nothing if there is no writer attached. The first time I tried the plugin I was confused because I did not even notice the Writers menu that was added by the plugin.

Because the script is not very worthwhile if nothing is written out, it would be helpful if the plugin alerted the user when writing out a script with no writer attached and briefly explained how to add one.
No tags attached.

Fixed so that if there is no writers and the view option is not chosen that a warning is given and the script is not generated. Also added in a warning for all non-writer filters that have no consumers if at least one writer is specified.
