Monitor and report on validity of configuration about zap HOT 4 OPEN

Great issue, some work was already done in the https://github.com/project-chip/connectedhomeip/blob/master/scripts/rules.matterlint but if zap could validate everything that would be great.

@tecimovic so if the user changes anything that came from the XML we should pop a notification as suggested?

It's not that simple, @paulr34 : what is "according to spec" is more complicated. Sure the XML actually holds all the data, but the rules can be complex. There are definitely "global spec rules" such as which clusters are mandatory per device and which are not.

But then there are also SDK specific rules and implementation rules, such as some of these "storage" issues and such. These might result in devices not getting certified for implementation issues.

So we have to determine all of these specific cases that we know of now, have a good framework to be able to add cases that will arise in the future, and then build all this.

Thank you @tecimovic that makes sense.
