Add SMS capability to Check-In Manager

12.0 Check-in Complete

If SMS is enabled, it would be awesome to be able to text parents from the Check-In Manager.  Currently we can look up  a kid, and the parents' phone numbers show up in the check-in manager. The links are phone call links, though. If we could click-to-text (using the official SMS number instead of a volunteer's cell) it would be awesome. For extra bonus points, it would be great if we could pre-build a default message.
