Description

DAFFODIL-598 modified the DFDL schema to support schema validation of short-form and attribute-form properties. However, it is not possible to use schema validation to validate element-form properties. As described in DAFFODIL-598:

The fix for this problem should be to modify the propgen.scala properties code generator to generate a validator for element-form annotations. Then this code can be explicitly called in the front end as each element-form construct is encountered.
