system.kanoa.cmms.addWorkType(workTypeInfo, userId)

Adds a new work type to the system (e.g. "Design", "Repair") for classifying the kind of work a technician performed on a work order event, logged via addWorkOrderEventTechnician. All keys in workTypeInfo are required unless otherwise stated as this function does not perform a partial insert. On success, the newly generated work type id is returned; on failure, an error message is returned instead.
