Parsing Variables Containing Special Characters without a Separator

[Sanjana-Attanayake]

Description

The variables of FHIR IGs, which use a special character, without a separator, just embedded to its original value, cases a error when the ballerina files are generated, as they violate the Ballerina languages syntax.

Consider the below ENUM record generated from the Swiss Core FHIR profile.

Ballerina Record

# CHCorePatientEPRGender enum
public enum CHCorePatientEPRGender {
   CODE_GENDER_OTHER = "other",
   CODE_GENDER_FEMALE = "female",
   CODE_GENDER_MALE = "male",
   CODE_GENDER_UNKNOWN* = "unknown*"
}

FHIR Definition

{
        "id": "Patient.gender",
        "path": "Patient.gender",
        "short": "male | female | other | unknown* (* see warning 'ch-pat-2')",
        ....
}

The "unknown" type has an asterisk (*) mark embedded to its value, causing the tool to generate a invalid variable type.

Steps to Reproduce

1. In the FHIR-Health Tool, try to parse the below IG for Swiss Core national base.

This error will be resolved with the merging of PR.
The PR update the utility conditions to detect and replace the special characters which will be detected as invalid in ballerina language if used in a variable declaration.
