Bug Description

We rely on usage statistics to manage our collections and would like to be able to get more specific information about In-house Usage to help us better track the ways our items are used beyond circulation. We'd like to add categories for different types of In-house Use, for example: Used by staff, Used by patron, Used by Faculty, Used for program, etc. The categories should be configurable at the consortium, system and branch level. We'd like the numbers to be reportable. The total In-house Use count currently shows in the item record -- maybe a little info-link like the one on Total Checkouts could break down the counts by categories when you hover over it?

We'd also like a Choose File button on the Record In-House Use screen, like the one on Item Status. There are times when a library has a spreadsheet of items that were used in a program and it would be great to be able to update the In-House use on all without scanning.
