             Summary: Add XSD Support to XML Reader (Part 1)
                 Key: DRILL-8453
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-8453
             Project: Apache Drill
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Format - XML
    Affects Versions: 1.21.1
            Reporter: Charles Givre
            Assignee: Charles Givre
             Fix For: 1.21.2


This PR is a part of a series to add better support for reading XML data to 
Drill.  One of the main challenges is that XML data does not have a way of 
inferring data types, nor does it have a way of detecting arrays.  

The only way to do this really well is to have a schema.  Some XML files link a 
schema definition file to the data.  This PR adds the capability for Drill to 
map XSD schema files into Drill schemas.  

The current plan is as follows: Part 1 of this PR simply adds the reader but 
adds no new user detectable functionality.  Part 2 will include the actual 
integration with the XML reader.  Part 3 will include the ability to read 
arrays.
