Make parameters (eg, Hysteresis, WH limit) explicitly identifiable - as being parameters - in the AML encoding #29

AML Attributes (<Attribute ... />) are used for more than one purpose, including parameters (like Hysteresis, etc.). For importers to be able to determine which attributes are parameters (instead of making assumptions), suggest to add explicit information to the encoded information in AML. Some possibilities:

Solutions that put the identifying mark embedded in the 'Name' string are probably more likely to be compatible/legal in AML/CAEX syntax rules(?)

CAEX 3 (upgrade from CAEX 2 is needed for AML Library) has "RefAttributeType" defined for defining type of attributes. Defining "Parameter" attribute type is solving this issue.
