[DFDL-WG] DFDL: Default dfdl:format annotation

Alan and I were discussing this on Friday.  We think that the 'default' 
dfdl:format would be better off contained within a dfdl:defineFormat 
annotation with no name, zero or one of which may exist in any given xsd. 
We think it makes things easier to document, specifically that dfdl:format 
now only appears in one place - as a child of dfdl:defineFormat, and that 
the term 'unnamed dfdl:defineFormat annotation' may be used to describe 
this annotation unambiguously.

<dfdl:defineFormat>
        <dfdl:format ........ />
</dfdl:defineFormat>

I'd like to add this to the first agenda item for today's call.
