Unit code list identifier attribute should not be present

Why it fails

'Unit code list identifier attribute' is present, but this profile does not allow it — nothing in the EN 16931 semantic model maps to it.

How to fix it

Remove 'Unit code list identifier attribute'. It is almost always left over from a generic template or a library that emits every field of the underlying schema. Reported as a warning.
