Added new Hand Held tyoe called I6.  I6 is a new Itron Hand Held type used for cycle billing.

Introduction

The I6 Hand Held type uses the MVRS specification to handle multiple cycles in one file. Most of the Itron Hand Held definitions use a single IHP Route ID in place of the true Billing Cycle allowing for a single Cycle per file.
