      public static XsdValidation.Result validateDoc(Reporter reporter, URL docUrl, String topElName, String topElNamespaceUri, boolean includeSummary)
      Validates a given document XML document against its declared schema. If an expected top element name is supplied, a check is also made that the top element of the validated document matches it.

      Getting this right seems to be remarkably painful. See comments in the implementation for details.

      Parameters:
      reporter - destination for validation messages
      docUrl - URL of XML document to validate
      topElName - expected name for top element; may be null
      topElNamespaceUri - expected namespace for top element; only used for reporting messages, and ignored if topElName is null
      includeSummary - if true, report an end-of-stage type summary
      Returns:
      validation result
