Schema versioning

The schema is stored in _schema field of the form and is an integer.

The package exports schemaVersion which is the current (and maximum) version that it compiles. It also exports minSchemaVersion which is the earliest version supported

Entity support

Questions can be linked to entities to support a variety of scenarios:

• Form creates an entity of a certain type with properties mapped to questions
• Form creates an entity of a certain type with properties mapped to questions
• Selecting an entity in an entity question pre-fills answers
• Selecting an entity in an entity question causes other answers to be used to update the entity selected
