Include ability to override in plane and out of plane Sustain Stress Indices (SSI) in User SIF dialog

The code allows you to reduce the SSIs based on more applicable data. Currently, AutoPIPE only lets you use SSI = 0.75SIF or SSI=1. ASME B31J allows you to reduce the SSI based on the following: Where sustained stress or moment factors are require...
