Modified sp_who - more info & extra parameter

This procedure, sp_who3, is based on the system-supplied sp_who2, but is modified to return the actual text of the commands executed by each spid.  Very helpful for troubleshooting!  In addition, I have added a @hostname parameter to allow the user the option of viewing activity originating from only one computer, if desired.
