Update dataDictionary - add dictionaryId

[hmaier-fws]

Add dictionaryId to the dataDictionary element. The dictionaryId is required to maintain the relation between a metadata record and an associated data dictionary. Dictionaries are often used as reusable components and should be treated the same as contacts. Without a dictionaryId, importing mdJSON results in the metadata record losing the link to a data dictionaries specified in the mdDictionary element.

Verify the following:

• Are changes required in the mdEditor
• Are changes required in the mdTranslator?
• Is there a related ISO mapping (e.g., ISO 19110)?

Element Name: dictionaryId

Description: Unique identifier for the data dictionary.

Type: string (UUID)

Rules:

• Required
• only one

Translation:

"FGDC CSDGM":  []
"ISO 19115-2": []
"DCAT": []

mdJson:

{
  "dataDictionary" : [
    
    "dictionaryId" :  "character",
    (...remaining schema elements)
  ]
}

Will adding this to the schema require any updates to the mdEditor? The editor already assigns a dictionaryId and it is part of the mdEditor-Json. It just doesn't get exported in the mdJson (See end of line 45). Possibly because it's not in the current schema.

@dwalt, @jwaspin
Does ISO make use of a dictionary identifier anywhere (feature catalog?) It is not in the current schema and if it is used we need to create a mapping. I'm assuming that CSDGM does not make use the the identifier.

@hmaier-fws Feature Catalogue does have MD_Identifier as an array. CSDGM data dictionary does not support identifiers.
