Validate a BUILDINFO file

Validate a BUILDINFO file according to a schema. If the file can be validated, the program exits with no output and a return code of 0. If the file can not be validated, an error is emitted on stderr and the program exits with a non-zero exit code.

Provide the BUILDINFO schema version to use.

If no schema version is provided, it will be deduced from the file itself.
