Load external references

[mattpolzin]

Work in progress interface for external reference loading can be summarized by the following example:

/// An example of implementing a loader context for loading external references
/// into an OpenAPI document.
struct ExampleLoaderContext: ExternalLoaderContext {
    static func load<T>(_ url: URL) throws -> T where T : Decodable {
        // load data from file, perhaps. we will just mock that up for the example:
        let data = mockParameterData(url)

        let decoded = try JSONDecoder().decode(T.self, from: data)
        let finished: T
        if var extendable = decoded as? VendorExtendable {
            extendable.vendorExtensions["x-source-url"] = AnyCodable(url)
            finished = extendable as! T
        } else {
            finished = decoded 
        }
        return finished
    }

    mutating func nextComponentKey<T>(type: T.Type, at url: URL, given components: OpenAPIKit.OpenAPI.Components) throws -> OpenAPIKit.OpenAPI.ComponentKey {
        // do anything you want here to determine what key the new component should be stored at.
        // for the example, we will just transform the URL into a valid components key:
        let urlString = url.pathComponents.dropFirst().joined(separator: "_").replacingOccurrences(of: ".", with: "_")
        return try .forceInit(rawValue: urlString)
    }

    /// Mock up some data, just for the example. 
    static func mockParameterData(_ url: URL) -> Data {
        return """

I'm going to close this PR. The following work is more likely to be the ultimately design: https://github.com/mattpolzin/OpenAPIKit/pull/369
