The XML for an alerts requires a `<description>` field. The XML for
a `<cancel>` may have a `<description>` field populated (although we
ignore the contents) but it may also be empty.
This commit updates the schema to leave the all the validation to the
view layer, which can decide when or when not to validate the content of
the `<description>` field.
We don’t store everything that comes in the CAP XML when someone creates
a broadcast via the API.
One thing we do store is `<identifier>` (in a column called `reference`)
which is a unique (to the external system) identifier for the broadcast.
We show this in the front end instead of the template name, because
broadcasts created from the API don’t use templates.
However this ID isn’t very friendly – the Environment Agency just supply
a UUID.
The Environment Agency also populate the `<event>` field with some human
readable text, for example:
> 013 Issue Severe Flood Warning EA
(013 is an area code which will be meaningful to the Flood Warning
Service team)
We should show this in the UI instead of the reference. The first step
towards this is storing it in the database and returning it in the REST
endpoints.
Later we can have the admin app prefer `cap_event` over `reference`,
where `cap_event` is present.
We can’t backfill this data because we don’t keep a copy of the original
XML.
Seems like `<event>` is a mandatory property of `<info>`, so we don’t
need to worry about the field being missing (`<info>` is optional in
CAP but we require it because it contains stuff like the areas which
we need in order to send out the broadcast`).

The maximum content count of a broadcast varies depending on its
encoding, so we can’t simply validate it against a schema. This commit
moves to using the validation from `notifications-utils`, and raising a
custom error response.
We don’t support these methods at the moment. Instead we were just
ignoring the `msgType` field, so issuing one of these commands would
cause a new alert to be broadcast 🙃
We might want to support `Cancel` in the future, but for now let’s
reject anything that isn’t `Alert` (CAP terminology for the initial
broadcast).
