Bundle format and functionality
An upload "bundle" is a data artifact that contains everything necessary to interpret the data of a single upload.
I needs to contain:
- raw files (optionally)
- archive (optionally based on a required)
- all upload and entry metadata
- all related DOI records
- all necessary schema
- a directory of all external references
- hashes/checksums, etc. ideally following some long-term archive standard
We should use these "bundles":
- to internally store immutable/published uploads
- transfer uploads from installation to installation
- import/export functionality
