Need an equivalent to dwcattributes:abcdEquivalence for HISPID equivalence #63

In many cases, a HISPID term can't be linked directly (semantically, using rdf:resource) to a single element in a previous standard because it took several elements to convey the same meaning.

A case in point is establishmentMeans, which maps to the two definitions posnat and poscul, both from HISPID 3 and HISPID 4. We can't supply a single skos:exactMatch, but we could supply several: one for each equivalent. However, even this doesn't work properly because it was the collection of elements that conveyed the same meaning. Perhaps in this case we use skos:relatedMatch and relatives instead? And then place an explanation of the difference in the text of the skos:scopeNote.

I think we should use dcterms:replaces and dcterms:isReplacedBy instead.
