Steve Hawkins resolved TEIID-1056.
----------------------------------

    Resolution: Done

Simplified the TranslatorProperty annotation to remove the name (inferred from the method - can add back latter for migration purposes), type (inferred from the method), allowed values (inferred if the type is an enum), read-only (inferred by the presence of a setter), and default value (inferred from the getter, if not required).  Added a managed value to delineate values set directly by deployer through a named element (xa-capable, etc.).  

For designer purposes - required means no default, not advanced, and must have a value

As per Paul's comment, advanced still exists but we could just as easily choose to get rid of it.

> The JDBC connector's "connection-definition" property is marked as an expert property but does not have a default value. Expert properties generally require very little maintenance and are normally not presented initially to a user. If a default value cannot be assigned to a required property it should not be marked as "expert." There might be other connectors with similar issues.
