I appreciate that classes in the Discovery category already have one of three suffixes on their name. However, I think the distinction between inventory, state, and query might in some cases be a little arbitrary or artificial. It is heavily dependent on how a given event is used by a product, and this can vary hugely from one product to another. For example, an endpoint product might enumerate running processes on startup and use So I guess in one respect I'm questioning if this change is actually going to help or hinder. For those for whom the chosen family aligns with their intended usage of the events, sure, it will help. But for those who see the foo event as an inventory instead of a state, the pre-determined sub-categorisation into distinct families that don't align with their usage is not helpful. If the community believes there is value to the family concept, I'm wondering if it should be families plural. It seems to me that an event could potentially belong to multiple families. |

Description of changes:
Added a new meta schema keyword to the framework,
family, so that related classes can be grouped together in the schema browser. In particular, we have many related classes in theDiscoverycategory that make it difficult to see what classes do what. Given they have been created a different times, they sort by their IDs and therefore the related_queryclasses and_infoclasses also don't sort together. Lastly, some of the classes don't conform to consistent suffixes, e.g.inventory_infois reallyDevice Inventory Info. This PR adds the information that will allow the browser to use the value of the keyword, e.g. the family nameQueryorInventory, to collapse the classes under the title matching the family name.Note
