AST: Add filetype and schema fields

The two identifiers are initially not really necessary for IFEX Core IDL files, but they are added to prepare for easier differentiating between multiple type of files. The intention that all Layer Types shall also include the same fields.

filetype: is used to indicate the layer type by name
schema: indicates through filename or URI the JSON schema file that defines the format of the Layer Type, which can thus be used to check conformance of the layer.

The program was tested solely for our own use cases, which might differ from yours.

The submission is provided under the main project license (LICENSE file in root of project).

Provider Information

The rationale is provided in the comments and documentation.  These are
optional fields and therefore a backwards compatible change.  A new
_minor_ version of the specification is appropriate.
