Extension: Extend mapping to take advantage of existing UMLS mappings in ontologies #46

Currently, the mapping code for DbXRefs is designed to map OMOP source codes to UMLS SABs. There is potential to easily extend this to take advantage of existing UMLS mappings provided by the ontologies. This is not a mandatory bug, but is a change to the current pipeline that could grab additional mappings for free.
