Much like #429, this adds support for nesting
repeating_subfields
.This only exists because #429 doesn't apply cleanly anymore.
I'm aware of two limitations, both apparently imposed by CKAN's handling of nested schemas:
A field with repeating subfields being the only subfield of a field crashes, due to this check.
This seems like it should be a relatively rare case.
Validators aren't applied to an empty leaf dictionary.
I've worked around that in the validators test case, by adding a field there.
This generally shouldn't be a problem when updating with a form, but I'm not sure how it would work with an API update.
This also fixes an issue, tested in the first commit, where deleting an instance of a
repeating_subfields
field would either reorder or remove entries of lexically laterrepeating_subfields
