Provide "migrate" helper to adopt (new) standardized aspects in datasets

Your idea

Inspired by

  • #1970

I think it would be great to extract/formalize "migrate" functionality from #1775 and make it easy for users to convert already present fields into this new standardized form from earlier versions. I wonder if anyone knows already existing cases where some dataset(s) might be using some "pre-standard" metadata fields or files, which were later standardized in BEPs and thus could potentially be upgraded?

  • may be for BEP028 GeneratedBy: https://github.com/bids-standard/BEP028_BIDSprov/issues/148
  • may be for deprecation of overloading the value support in inheritance principle: https://github.com/bids-standard/bids-specification/pull/1834
