[BUG-Javascript] npm package 'jsonschema' used in JsonValidation.js doesn't support "anyOf" propery

[patrick-koenig]

The npm package 'jsonschema' used for JSON-Schema validation in @nfdi4plants/arctrl/ISA/ISA.Json/Validation/JsonValidation.js doesn't support "anyOf" propery, which is used in several JSON Schemas of ISA.

See tdegrunt/jsonschema#388 for a corresponding issue raised in the Github repo of "jsonschema".

The affected JSON schemas of ISA are:

• factor_value_schema.json
• material_attribute_value_schema.json
• ontology_annotation_schema.json
• process_parameter_value_schema.json
• process_schema.json

As an alternative, you could try Ajv (https://ajv.js.org), as this officially supports "anyOf": https://ajv.js.org/json-schema.html#anyof

Thanks for the feedback! I will look into this.

In case you want to help, you could adapt the following file to the new dependency. This would of great help!

This was deemed not maintainable for the time being, we moves json schema validation to our unit tests to confirm our produced json is correct.
