bodysite for HMP_2012 anerior_nares samples should be "nose" or "external nares", not "nasal cavity" #69

The anterior nares subsite is not part of the nasal cavity. nose and external nares are both parent terms in the Uberon Anatomy Ontology (link). I would vote for nose to keep it simple for more people.

This is ok to me, but I would include it in a more general conversion function from old grammar to a new ontology-based one, rather than simply amend the current table.
