Mapping of DDI 1.2.2. incorrectly handles cases where an XML file has empty elements

Created by: yytosi

XML like the following.

study_1 Some authoring entity

Creates the following docstore JSON structure for Principal Investigator: "principal_investigators":[
{
"principal_investigator":"Some authoring entity", "language":"en" }, {
"language":"en" } ],

This also causes FieldTypeErrors in OAI-PMH Repo Handler because the Element has no value or attributes.
