Define strategy for gene metadata #15

Problem: For marker genes, we would like to map to the names and IDs in the reference matrix. The Cell Annotation Standard requires specification of a link to a matrix in H5AD format, but it is probably overloading the development tools to load and extract this information. This probably belongs in a python package for validation of Cell Annotation Standard - which should both validate the JSON and cross-validate with linked h5ad files.
