CIBER X0 Retirement

From CDGWiki

This work item involves the move from the CIBER x0 records (e.g. type 10 & 20) to type 22. Type 22 is a newer format (also referred to as "version 2.5") which supports number portability (i.e. MIN-MDN separation) as well as more information about the call than the old formats.
