Support all CSL JSON fields in citation: CSL YAML.

[the-solipsist]

Summary

Currently, some valid CSL JSON fields (such as id:) are not supported in the CSL YAML within citation:.

What I'm trying to do

I have all of the articles I've written saved in Zotero. I've exported all of them into a single CSL YAML file using BetterBibTex. I then cut-paste the relevant CSL YAML snippet into the citation: field of the corresponding article's .qmd file.

Problem

When I do so and click render, the YAML checker spits out an error that id is not a valid field:

[{
	"resource": "/home/sol/documents/work/website/publications/press/whatsapp-in-kashmir_when-big-brother-wants-to-go-beyond-watching-you.qmd",
	"owner": "_generated_diagnostic_collection_name_#1",
	"severity": 8,
	"message": "property name id is invalid",
	"source": "quarto",
	"startLineNumber": 14,
	"startColumn": 3,
	"endLineNumber": 14,
	"endColumn": 5
}]

Further, it doesn't recognize it when authors and dates are given as arrays instead of strings, but in that case it just ignores them.

Proposed solution

Ensure that valid CSL YAML citations generated by Pandoc / Zotero BetterBibTex can be read by Quarto by supporting all valid CSL JSON fields.

@dragonstyle do we omit some fields from spec from some reason ?

No this was merely an oversight. I just fixed it here:

We intend to support the full CSL JSON schema, so when there is an omission it is helpful to list it (as this thread did with id - thank you!).
