GROUPID_CHANGE firing whenever state changes

Branch: dev-bl/zoombuttons

NetCreate.jsx now uses a tab panel, built with ReactStrap, to allow users to select between a Node Table and an Edge Table.

The tab panel works fine, but when you click on a tab to switch panels, a GROUPID_CHANGE event is fired and we get a warning:

Tracing the sequence:

1. When you click on a tab, NetCreate.jsx's toggle() function is called.
2. ReactStrap's tab panel uses a local state activeTab to keep track of the current tab. So when I click on a tab panel, we do a this.setState({ activeTab: tab }).
3. Some other stuff happens.
4. And then at some point, it appears that SessionShell.jsx's render() is being called, triggering the GROUPID_CHANGE AppCall.

If I remove the setState call in the toggle() method, the GROUPID_CHANGE is not triggered.

It's possible that Bootstrap updates the URL when changing tabs, and that's triggering the SessionShell call?

But that's probably not the culprit, because there are other setState calls in NetCreate.jsx and whenever setState is called, the GROUPID_CHANGE is triggered.

I think this error is happening because render() is triggering setState(), which obviously shouldn't happen. This coupling is introduced inadvertently by some of our own state handling through UNISYS.
