A notebook that creates an example of an SBOL2 Generic Location

This addresses #26

I think this isn't very informative yet, because it isn't concrete enough to really show the value of the representation. How about instead having this show a Cre-Lox recombination applied to activate a not-yet-selected coding sequence by un-reversing it?

That would be a little more complicated, but I think a lot more compelling. The total representation would be:

• Two Component objects, for the Cre-Lox sites
• One SequenceAnnotation for the unknown CDS
• One Range (first recombination site) and two GenericLocation (CDS and second site)
• Two SequenceConstraint objects.

@jakebeal - I agree with your comment there and I like the idea. I have mixed feelings about including this example just for Generic Location because this has a lot more SBOL classes in it.

How about we have a simpler notebook that just shows Generic Location. But we can also add another notebook showing a Cre-Lox recombination? I've added another notebook (outside the CreatingSBOL2Objects folder).

Happy to hear your thoughts.

We can also add a note pointing users to the Cre-Lox example (or perhaps a ReadMe in the sbol2 folder)

I think there's no point in using GenericLocation without this level of complexity.

I would thus suggest that instead of making a low-content GenericLocation, that we have this notebook's documentation point to the notebooks for SequenceConstraint, SequenceAnnotation, etc. as prerequisites

I've modified the Generic Location notebook to reflect your comments. I've also added a link to the Cre-Lox notebook while providing users with a simpler code snippet to understand how to create a Generic Location.
