Support for 'Short' data type for PI AMI Interface for Itron OpenWay Collection Engine

The 'Short' data type of a Register Value is not currently compatible with the interface. The user guide does not explicitly mention 'Short', and it denotes that the supported PI Point types are Float32, Digital, String. Of which, none are technically integers, but Float32 would be the closest fit supposing the conversion is built-in. The corresponding AF Attribute could be a Single.

Anyways, currently the AMI Interface only supports "int", "unsignedLong", and "double" RegisterValues on the source, so the only workaround would be to reconfigure the Register Value on the data source. However, this is not always feasible or possible depedning on the data source.
