Standard.getLevels() has no XML wrapper annotations, so the XML generator writes each level as a <levels> element inside the <levels> wrapper:

<levels>
  <levels bom-ref="level-1">
    <identifier>Level 1</identifier>
    ...

The 1.6 and 1.7 XSDs expect <levels><level>, so validation of the output fails with cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content was found starting with element '{"http://cyclonedx.org/schema/bom/1.6":levels}'. One of '{"http://cyclonedx.org/schema/bom/1.6":level}' is expected. This happens when valid-standard-1.6.xml or valid-standard-1.6.json (and the 1.7 files) is parsed and XML is generated again.

This annotates getLevels() with @JacksonXmlElementWrapper(localName = "levels") and @JacksonXmlProperty(localName = "level"), the same way getRequirements() and Level.getRequirements() already are. JSON output is unchanged.

schema16StandardLevelsGenerationTest generates XML from /1.6/valid-standard-1.6.xml and checks that it has <level bom-ref="level-1"> and passes the XSD. It fails without the change and passes with it. mvn -B test passes: 1762 tests, 0 failures.

Standard.getLevels had no XML wrapper annotations, so the XML generator
wrote each level as a <levels> element inside <levels>. The XSD expects
<levels><level>, so re-generating the spec test file
valid-standard-1.6.xml (or the JSON one) gave an invalid BOM.

Annotate it like getRequirements and Level.getRequirements.
