Summary

Reverted the version checking logic back to the way it was in v2.0.2.
- No version information is required by the API when validating against `xsi:schemaLocation` or non-bundled schemas. That is, users do not need to provide a `version` argument to validation functions.
- STIX profile validation does not require version information to be passed in or declared in the document.
- Updated documentation to better explain when version information is required from the user/input and when it will be ignored.

Bug Fixes
- [56] Reverted the behavior of version checking and verification back to the way it was in v2.0.2.
