Add Editing of LegalDocML text #187

For Blawx to be useful in the context of legislative drafting, the user needs to be able to edit not only the code, but also the law. That is going to pose two major problems. The first is that there are no good WYSIWYG web-based editors that are open source. Things like Oxygen have been used successfully for Akoma Ntoso in the past, but it is not open source. The second is that currently all code exists within sections, so editing sections of your law will potentially have the effect of orphaning sections of code, or associating them with wrong sections by virtue of the eId getting modified.

Resolved in #191. Legislation can now be entered, and edited, in the Clean langauge, which was created for this purpose.
