GROUP classification type may need options requirement

Medium Severity

The new GROUP classification type is not added to _REQUIRES_OPTIONS, allowing creation of GROUP classifications without any options. Semantically, a "group" implies grouping items together, which would require options to be meaningful. An empty GROUP classification (with nothing to group) may result in invalid ontologies or unexpected behavior during labeling. If GROUP is intended to behave like CHECKLIST/RADIO, it needs to be added to _REQUIRES_OPTIONS.
