Description

See https://github.com/dandi/dandi-archive/issues/2687#issuecomment-3893988134

When validating the metadata of a dandiset with a schema version that is older than the current schema version, instead of being constructed locally from the models (and crucially, supplied env vars) within dandischema, it is [fetched](https://github.com/dandi/dandi-schema/blob/07aa22c391c0135bc9275d515de71eae831b5c41/dandischema/metadata.py#L198) from the generated dandi [schema](https://github.com/dandi/schema/tree/master) files.

Research direction

Read dandischema/metadata.py around line 198 and the linked issue discussion, then compare that path with the generated dandi/schema files. Done means validation for older schema versions uses locally constructed dandischema models with supplied environment variables instead of fetching generated schema files.
