Usage notes

- Checks include PDF/A-3 metadata, identity of the FileSpec referenced by Catalog
/AFand the EmbeddedFiles name tree, FileSpec/Fand/UFnames, decoded EmbeddedFile/Subtype, XMP filename,DocumentType, and namespace consistency, profile filename rules,/AFRelationshiprules, and XML guideline alignment - The cross-consistency flags are
fxviInvalidAttachmentMimeType,fxviAttachmentFileNameMismatch,fxviInvalidXMPDocumentType, andfxviInvalidXMPNamespace; existing flags continue to report missing PDF/A metadata, Catalog AF and name-tree registration, invoice XML, XMP filename mismatch, XML guideline mismatch, invalid AF relationships, and invalid filename/profile combinations - Use ExtractFacturXXML when the caller needs the invoice XML bytes for schema or business-rule validation
