Small but nice improvement

Old records usually don't show the birth or death date of a person. Instead we use christening and burial dates. FH nicely shows these dates prefixed with chr. and bur. in the persons overview. But, not so much in children's part of the property box and that's a pity since now (for older records) the birth field is empty (suggesting that we don't have any birth information). This leads to unnecessary checking whether it is indeed a missing birth/christening (a correct empty field) or a non-showing christening. Given that genealogy is about old records and that in many countries these records contain only christening and not (and the older ones, never) births, I propose to use the birth field in the children's part of the property box as in the full view (show christening date with a prefix e.g. ~ or something).
