Simple Method Cleanup Effort

Intro

The purpose of this effort is to make the element and attribute names used in simple-methods simpler and more consistent. Some ideas such as the old map-name and field-name pairs are no longer needed, and at the same time we want to simplify attribute names like "field-name" to just plain "field".

All changes done to the XSD files will be supported in the Java code that parses, along with the support for the deprecated and replaced elements and attributes. In this way old simple-method code will run fine, but with a LOT of parse warnings, and new stuff and old stuff will run together just fine.
