Description
Description of the proposal:
See [IfcRelAssigns](https://standards.buildingsmart.org/IFC/DEV/IFC4_2/FINAL/HTML/link/ifcrelassigns.htm).
WR1 states:
```
WR1 : IfcCorrectObjectAssignment(RelatedObjectsType, RelatedObjects);
```
Attribute 6 documentation states:
> IFC4 CHANGE The attribute is deprecated and shall no longer be used. A NIL value should always be assigned.
While we're at it, I propose to remove _both_ WR1 and attribute 6, since it's always NULL anyway.
