/**
 * Normalizes a complete form definition into the schema format expected by UVE.
 *
 * This is the main entry point for converting a developer-friendly form definition
 * into the normalized schema structure that UVE (Universal Visual Editor) can consume.
 * The normalization process transforms the entire form hierarchy:
 *
 * **Normalization Process:**
 * 1. Preserves the `contentType` identifier
 * 2. Processes each section using `normalizeSection`, which:
 *    - Normalizes all fields in the section using `normalizeField`
 *    - Organizes fields into the required multi-dimensional array structure
 * 3. Returns a fully normalized schema with consistent structure across all sections
 *
 * The resulting schema has all field-specific properties moved into `config` objects
 * and all sections using the consistent single-column array structure, regardless
 * of the input format.
 *
 * @experimental This method is experimental and may be subject to change.
 *
 * @param form - The complete form definition to normalize
 * @param form.contentType - The content type identifier this form is associated with
 * @param form.sections - Array of section definitions, each containing a title and fields
 * @returns The normalized form schema ready to be sent to UVE, with all fields and sections normalized
 *
 * @example
 * ```typescript
 * const schema = normalizeForm({
 *   contentType: 'my-content-type',
 *   sections: [
 *     {
 *       title: 'Typography',
 *       fields: [
 *         { type: 'input', id: 'font-size', label: 'Font Size', inputType: 'number' },
 *         { type: 'dropdown', id: 'font-family', label: 'Font Family', options: ['Arial', 'Helvetica'] }
 *       ]
 *     },
 *     {
 *       title: 'Colors',
 *       fields: [
 *         { type: 'input', id: 'primary-color', label: 'Primary Color', inputType: 'text' }
 *       ]
 *     }
 *   ]
 * });
 * // Returns: {
 * //   contentType: 'my-content-type',
 * //   sections: [
 * //     {
 * //       title: 'Typography',
 * //       fields: [
 * //         [
 * //           { type: 'input', id: 'font-size', label: 'Font Size', config: { inputType: 'number' } },
 * //           { type: 'dropdown', id: 'font-family', label: 'Font Family', config: { options: [...] } }
 * //         ]
 * //       ]
 * //     },
 * //     {
 * //       title: 'Colors',
 * //       fields: [
 * //         [
 * //           { type: 'input', id: 'primary-color', label: 'Primary Color', config: { inputType: 'text' } }
 * //         ]
 * //       ]
 * //     }
 * //   ]
 * // }
