Add `check_nwb_schema_version_official_release` to validate that NWB files use official release versions rather than development or pre-release versions. This check is configured as CRITICAL for DANDI validation to ensure production data compatibility and reproducibility.

This check uses the loaded namespace from PyNWB to check the schema version validity and not the nwbfile argument provided. I think it would be more direct to check the nwb_version attribute of the nwbfile provided. Thoughts?

See the comment on the check, but I think these tests could also be updated/simplified using mock nwbfiles with the nwb_version attribute manually changed instead of patching the namespace manager
