Matching functionality for Systematic & Scalefactor. In the legacy database, these were matched to datasets,axes and values by a comparision of headers and descriptions in String format. This class enables dataset,axis and point ids to be assigned to the errors. It is probably only useful for migration, since post-migration, String matching will no longer be necessary!
