Depositors/browsers can see which schemas map to Dataverse metadata fields

[jggautier]

People adding, editing and viewing metadata will be able to see, in the UI, which fields in certain schemas map to Dataverse metadata fields they're adding, editing or viewing.

We'll need some way to show to users which fields in the citation, geospatial, life sciences and terms metadata blocks are mapped to schemas, including DDI, DataCite, Dublin Core, ISA-Tab, VO Resource and Schema.org.

This is related to #2162.

Thanks @pdurbin. Glad to hear Janet found the mapping spreadsheet helpful. I imagine she and others working on migration and evaluation would also find it helpful to see where in the UI the Dataverse metadata fields are, helping them understand how researchers and curators might interpret a particular Dataverse field, and if it's being mapped to the appropriate fields in DDI and other standards.
