Signal to CAN Frame Conversion Does Not Set Extended Flag

CAN frames use arbitration identifiers that can be either standard or extended formats. In a Conversion Session, when a signal is converted to a CAN frame that uses an extended ID in the database, the extended flag is not being set in the frame data.

Programmatically set the extended? flag to True after the signal is converted by reading it from the database.
