Friendly User Agent for WooCommerce Reviews, Downloads & Maintenance

Unknown to many, WooCommerce captures the device/platform, browser and browser version used by a customer when an order is placed, this is known as the user agent string. This useful information is currently not shown anywhere in the WooCommerce plugin.

**Friendly User Agent for WooCommerce* simply displays this information as a new column on the Orders page and within the Edit Order page. You can then see what customers are using what devices and browsers.

Hi, very well done, I would give some css work on the orders admin display since the row is fixed width and icon is something jumping to next row.. Thanks and keep on the good work!
