[uf-new] hProduct: Shipping

[Jason Hale]

I also agree that shipping information doesn't belong to a product, it
belongs to that transaction and shouldn't be tackled within hproduct.
This would also go along with taxes or any other sales fees associated
with a transaction, they should not be apart of hproduct.
