forkOf exists in RDF, but not in the markdown spec #27

The idea behind this is probably, that the Krawler supplies this data, but that is only possible on platforms that supply such data, and even there, a project could be forked of an other, which is hosted on an other platform, thus it would not be indicated as a fork.

Therefore it might make sense to allow to manually specify forkOf in the TOML manifest.

agree :ok_hand: and yes, it comes from a time where we thought the Krawler would deliver such information :)
