   - The dfdlx:repType property is now resolved just like any other DFDL 
property, it no longer *must* be on a global simple type definition.
   - The dfdlx:repType property now must reference a type with an underlying 
primitive type derived from xs:integer, and elements that define dfdlx:repType 
must have an underlying primitive type of xs:string
   - Enumerations no longer need to be immediately on the element or simpleType 
associate with a repType. Multiple levels of indirection via restriction bases 
are now supported.
   - Most of the complexity related to type calc is removed, now that it does 
not need to be generalized for other uses of type calculators. In fact, the 
concept of a "type calculator" and rep value sets are removed. The needed data 
structures for quick conversion from rep type to logical type are created and 
passed directly to the RepType parser/unparsers. We lose some extensibility, 
but that only adds unneeded complexity.
   - repValueRanges are no longer converted to BigInts. Instead, where 
necessary DPath functions are used to compare values.
   - repType logic is moved out of expression related files into their own 
specific files, since repType no longer has any relation to expressions now 
that type calculators are removed.
   - The repType mixin is moved from DSOM to grammar, since the properties are 
more related to grammar usage than DSOM usage. This simplifies the 
implementation a bit
   - EnumerationDef now does not convert repValues to their repType. Previously 
it could do this because it just use a BigInt, but now that the correct data 
primitive is used, we must do it elsewhere, sine the EnumerationDef does not 
know what the repType primitive is. Only the element where the repType is 
defined knows that information.
   - Adds new logic to make sure that repValues and repValueRanges do not 
overlap
   
   Deprecation/Compatibility:
   
   The dfdlx:repType property now must reference a type with an underlying 
primitive type derived from xs:integer, and elements that define dfdlx:repType 
must have an underlying primitive type of xs:string
