[Platform API] Defines an Open Data Access (ODA) design session that allows a custom ODA designer tool to specify the slice of data to access at run-time.

The ODA design-time framework provides the capability for a third-party data source provider to optionally provide its own custom designer. An ODA custom designer is a data-source-specific query builder that provides own custom UI for an user to explore its meta-data and build a data set query. Most of the metadata are specific to individual data sources. A custom designer is expected to encapsulate the specific knowledge and context of its underlying data source.
An ODA host uses a generic set of design information for its data access. The data access design is modeled and defined in this ODA Design Session API.

When a new data source is designed, an ODA design-time host application would initiate and request a new ODA design session with the data source's custom ODA designer. An user would step through the data-source-specific design task in a custom ODA designer. When finished, a data access design is created and passed to the ODA host in a response to the design session it has initiated.

The ODA host would in turn adapt the data access design to its host-specific design components and persistent format.
The data access design may be edited in a later design session. An ODA host would request another design session, and pass the last session's pertinent information to the custom ODA designer. After a user completes editing of the data access design, a revised design is again passed to the ODA host for updates.

The OdaDesignSession interface is the starting point of the API in the ODA design-time framework. It contains a DesignSessionRequest and DesignSessionResponse, each of which contains pertinent design session information and a DataAccessDesign. @since 3.0
