Re: MusicXML Test Suite has some bad values

[Matthew James Briggs]

I have come across a couple of other examples which I believe are incorrect
MusicXML while working with the Lilypond MusicXML test suite.  I can
provide additional examples if I come across them and if this information
is useful to the Lilypond development community.

I am using MusicXML 3.0 musicxml.xsd

It looks like Lilypond's test files are old, predating the xsd, so this
might be the source of the discrepancies.  I believe these examples would
fail xsd validation.

** ly01e_Pitches_ParenthesizedAccidentals.xml* incorrectly uses
"double-flat" which should be "flat-flat" instead

* *lysuite_ly22b_Staff_Notestyles.xml* incorrectly has <slash> elements
that are missing required attribute 'use-stems' and required child element
'slash-type'

* *ly23b_Atriculations_Texts.xml* cas a 'color' attribute on the 'words'
element I have examined the xsd thoughouly and I believe this is illegal
(though I'm surprised by this).
