Sample code in C# to list an Item with ShippingServices using .NET SDK

Summary

Prior to .NET SDK version 459, ShippingService was a code type and to list an item with a shipping service, you needed to use a value of the ShippingServiceCodeType enumeration.  Since SDK version 459,  it is a token, (essentially a string).  To set a value for the Shipping Service, you need to assign a valid string.  You can get a list of all the valid ShippingService values by making a call to GeteBayDetails.  If you are on a version prior to 459, it is strongly recommended that you update your SDK to the latest version.
