Incorporate changes to be more compatible with OHDSI #2

This incorporates some changes suggested by Martijn to make the schema more compatible with OHDSI and easier to use.

Do we foresee the person ever being anyone other than the patient? If not, I think I prefer patient_id to person_id, just because it is more explicit.

I'm not sure that making person_id consistent across MEDS and OMOP does much in terms of compatibility between the formats.
