Description
In BCF XML, TopicType and TopicStatus are marked as required:
* https://github.com/buildingSMART/BCF-XML/blob/bc48611d0d7a1587f028a2b69677a1aafd5cd0a8/Schemas/markup.xsd#L118-L119
* https://github.com/buildingSMART/BCF-XML/tree/release_3_0/Documentation#topic
In the BCF API, they're optional. We should probably make it the same in both standards.

Research direction
Compare the TopicType and TopicStatus declarations in Schemas/markup.xsd with the Topic documentation under release_3_0/Documentation, then determine how the BCF API treats those fields. Clarify whether both standards should require or allow them before updating the relevant specification text and validating consistency.
