In the CLI, there is the -I option to specify infoset-type.

One of the choices is 'sax'.

This is a mistake I think. This is really "XML text by way of calling the
SAX API". It's effectively a testing mode for us.

SAX usage is inherently an API.

I believe we should remove this feature from the CLI, because it creates a
lot of confusion. It requires test-mode things to be in the main-libraries
where the CLI can find them.

If we require SAX to be used as it is intended, from applications calling
Daffodil via APIs, then all this "xml text to/from SAX-event" code all ends
up in src/test where it belongs.

Thoughts?
