Feature Request: Consider implementing Frictionless Data Schema

      <!---

      Questions: If you have questions about HOW TO use Realm, please ask on

      We monitor the realm tag.

      Feature Request: Just fill in the first two sections below.

      Bugs: To help you as fast as possible with an issue please describe your issue
      and the steps you have taken to reproduce it in as much detail as possible.

      Please consider in implementing a Fricitionless Data <frictionlessdata.io> for the Realm Schema. It's a more standardize, robust, universal and focused on standards and best practices for a database schema definitions.

      And I think Realm current data Schema already close to the Frictionless Data standard. So it would not be too difficult to implement it.

      Goals

      <!--- What are you trying to achieve? -->
      The frictionless data vision

      > Frictionless Data is about removing the friction in working with data. We are doing this by developing a set of tools, standards, and best practices for publishing data. The heart of Frictionless Data is the Data Package standard, a containerization format for any kind of data based on existing practices for publishing open-source software.

      I think http://frictionlessdata.io/about/ explained all the goals.

      Expected Results

      <!--- What did you expect to happen? -->

      1. Schema Documentation availability. The Frictionless Data have a huge set of documentations about data, table, and json schema, etc.
      2. By implementing a common standard for the Database Schema, it will really help in connecting both mobile app powered by Realm and a running API server that already follow the standardization.
      3. Data schema standardization that can be use by anyone who want to try a migration to Realm.
      4. Help in validating fetched data through various of standardize constraints.
