As extensively discussed in ticket #612 this adds classifier to components, to specify whether they can interpreted as a source or binary component.

Fixes #612

FYI: @fmoessbauer @gernot-h

Add a new field to components to specify whether the component is to
be understood as source or binary.

Thank you for taking the initiative. Unfortunately, I must inform you that CycloneDX 1.7 was finalized some days ago.

In accordance with our standardization process, we cannot add any new features at this stage in a timely manner, as doing so would require a month-long RFC period and other procedural steps.

Ah, that is too bad. How do we proceed from here? Wait for the pending release and try to get it into the next?

We are currently working on CycloneDX v2.0, but I would discourage any PRs at this time, as the schema is undergoing major refactoring. Wait for the schema to stabilize (January likely).
