Flex: Update stop schema and add missing_stop_id rule

[emmambd]

Describe the problem

In order to support Flex as a part of https://github.com/MobilityData/gtfs-validator/issues/1721, we need to

1) modify the stop schema so stop_id is no longer a required field 2) add a new rule for missing_stop_id and checks for ids across stop_id, location_group_id, and locations.id

Proposed solution

• Test to check that missing_required_field is no longer triggered when stop_id is not provided
• Add new missing_stop_id rule. Test with no-stop-id-for-trip-t_5735996_b_81516_tn_0.zip I removed the stop_id associated with the trip_id t_5735996_b_81516_tn_0 in stop_times.txt from https://data.trilliumtransit.com/gtfs/islandtransit-wa-us/islandtransit-wa-us--flex-v2-TEST.zip to test this.
• In depth review of acceptance test results, given the widespread implications of this change

File name	Spec language	Notice to update or add	Validator logic	Notice table columns
stops.txt, location_groups.txt, locations.geojson	In stops.txt: stop_id ID must be unique across all `stops.stop_id`, locations.geojson `id`, and `location_groups.location_group_id` values. In stop_times.txt: stop_id **Required** if `stop_times.location_group_id` AND `stop_times.location_id` are NOT defined. -	New notice to address use case that was previously covered in missing_required_field: missing_stop_id	ERROR: Generate if there is no stop_id, location_group_id, OR location_id Description should specify that the producer should add stop_id to stops.txt	lineNumber and tripId

No response

Additional context

This seems to be the most substantial change to the previous files and requirements of the spec from the new Flex changes. We're curious to hear from consumers about this modification and the work required for them to incorporate this change.

Tasks:

• [ ] Investigate if it's possible to keep the same missing required field notice in case of non-flex feeds

After further clarification, this change is not required. stop_id is still required in all cases where stops.txt is still provided. The decision to define stops.txt as conditionally required is an ongoing discussion in the spec: https://github.com/google/transit/issues/452
