[osis-core] osis_0109 Arrives! Very close to 1.0!!!

[Todd Tillinghast]

I have only looked at the schema and have not run any test, etc..  At first
glance it looks much cleaner.  (like the consistent start and stop names and
reworked attribute group.)

I will look further at referenceWork later and dig into how to use it and
how to misuse it, etc...

Also have to think more about the NMTOKENS.  Just haven't had that much time
to look that this yet.

Probably after dinner.
