remove classification of endothelium from under epithelium #3385

This has already been done for the cell types in CL.

See this ticket for discussion

As for CL, there are some cases where we are getting automated classifications that are counter-intuitive for users.

This is a little more challenging than the CL equivalent. I think that general class will need to move to under 'tissue' - or maybe we could have a new grouping - epithelial-like?

Some original discussion here:

however, this left things in a confusing state. The GO discussion ended up supporting @dosumis's proposal - but at the same time GO delegated to Uberon/CL, which continued to say endo is-a epi.

I was sure we had an issue in this tracker where we discussed this in some detail, and decided that endo is-a epi... but I cannot find this!

FWIW
