Clarify the relationship with GSIM (use the same design patterns?) #77

Section 3 indicates that XKOS draws from the Neuchatel model and that a new version of the Neuchâtel model has recently been created and included in the General Statistical Information Model ([GSIMSCM]) but does not disclose the relationship between XKOS and GSIM nor the mapping published at: https://ddi-alliance.atlassian.net/wiki/display/DDI4/Classification

After exploring these mappings apart from the change in concept names, I have spotted mainly one difference between GSIM (using a patched version of the GSIM ontology published at https://github.com/FranckCo/Stamina/tree/master/doc/gsim ):

It is worth noting that the GSIM approach uses a design pattern which is similar to what is proposed in QB4OLAP, an extension of the RDF Data Cube vocabulary with a richer definition of Level https://github.com/lorenae/qb4olap/wiki/2)-Vocabulary-outline
