Small patch to fix the bug, and provide a 'display' accessor too

This patch fixes the bug, such that calling tostring() on a FieldInfo object
always returns a string, although the string might be '(unknown)', '(none)', or
'(n/a)' depending on the scenario.

Also it creates a new 'FieldInfo.display' accessor table member, which the Lua
script can use instead of tostring() to get what the GUI displays.
