Measure repeats
Measure repeats (aka "simile" markings) are encoded on the part-measure object, as a "measureRepeat" attribute.
In a part-measure that contains a measureRepeat, the sequence content is usually empty. (Occasionally, published music uses a measure-repeat marking with notation in the same bar. In that case, use "measureRepeat" and populate the sequence content.)
For a multi-measure repeat, such as the two-bar repeat at the end of this example, the measureRepeat is encoded on the first of the bars, and nothing is encoded in the remaining bars.
