Distinguish between prescribe and match semantics #9

Description

@dsebastien

Having the ability to express detection rules (what makes a note match this type) and prescription rules (what a note of this type MUST have) would be valuable.

Example:

match:       # Detection: how to recognize existing notes
  where:
    tags:
      contains: meeting

prescribe:   # Enforcement: what valid notes must include
  tags:
    - meeting
    - pkm
  fields_present:
    - meeting_date

Currently, match serves double duty. A note can match by tag but the type also wants to enforce additional tags. These are different concerns: match is for discovery, prescribe is for validation.
