QuantityKind shouldn't refer to dul:Region #26

The definition borrowed from QUDT is simple and understandable, but the definition borrowed from DUL may only be satisfactory to a topologist or philosopher. "any region in a dimensional space... maximal Region... minimal Region": sorry to say, but these sound very abstract.

Coming from an engineer like Maxime of LINDT fame, this love of abstract ontologies and topological concepts is surprising. I suggest to kill these borrowings from, and the references to, DUL. https://github.com/Accord-Project/aec3po/blob/5fb6f7e2b8b9f0f208caeeab68461aa8b3c0dfcd/src/quantity_kinds.ttl#L29
