Java EE application descriptor correctness

Reports the following problems inside `application.xml` configuration files:

References to non-instantiable classes
References to classes that do not extend required class
References to classes with inappropriate scope
Tag and attribute values that do not match required pattern (for example, Java Identifiers)
Tags that do not include required children tags or attributes
Tags that define objects with duplicate names

Example:

<application>
    <module id="ExampleWebModule">
      <web> // Error: 'web-uri' child tag should be defined
        <context-root>ExampleWebApp</context-root>
      </web>
    </module>
</application>
