XML Schema says NX_CHAR but should be NX_UINT? #571

Description

@prjemian

In nxdl.xsd, dimensionsType, the data type of the rank attribute is NX_CHAR. Seems it should be NX_UINT. Will there be adverse consequences if this change is included in the next definitions release?

		<xs:attribute name="rank" type="nx:NX_CHAR">
			<xs:annotation>
				<xs:documentation>
					Rank (number of dimensions) of the data structure.  
					For example: ``a[5]`` has ``rank="1"`` while 
					``b[8,5,6,4]`` has ``rank="4"``.  
					See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rank_(computer_programming) 
					for more details.

			</xs:annotation>
		</xs:attribute>
