[WIP] changes to schema

currently generateCore throws error:

Dot indexing is not supported for variables of this type.

            sg_namespace = namespacereg.getNamespace(sg.type).name;

This error appears to be in constructing Devices.

The inclusion of the LabMetaData type has broken elision for general. I'll see if I can gracefully split that into multiple properties.

[bendichter]

I see. It's sort of a funny type because its sole purpose is to be extended, but it saves people from having to extend NWBFile itself, which I imagine would cause bigger problems. Thanks for handling this. I'm also pushing some changes that I know will be necessary (though I can't test them while generateCore is broken)

[bendichter]

@ln-vidrio any progress here?

[lawrence-mbf]

I'm fixing tests now but it's essentially a schema reading adjustment so I'd imagine it will also break most if not all tests and utilities.

[bendichter]

yikes. OK... thanks for getting this in

So I'll summarize script changes:
Due to changes in elision rules, the properties for any class with Sets have been restructured.
Basically, if a property is "missing" it may've been "hoisted" as its parent property. So you can't find "general_labmetadata" as a property because it's been hoisted into the "general" property. Hopefully, this will only cause syntax errors in the scripts.
