Git submodule

This repository includes a git submodule for the XML descripton files. These files contain a machine-readable description of the DIS messages that are translated into a language implementation. Since the XML file is shared across multiple languages, I'm trying to prevent between-language drift of the description file.

You should only need this if you're regenerated the source code, which is unlikely. but if you are, bring in the submodule with

git submodule init
git submodule update
