Resolves [#486]

  • docs/ have been added/updated if necessary
  • make test has been run locally
  • [ ] tests have been added/updated (if applicable)
  • [ ] CHANGELOG.md has been updated.

Propagation and condensation of "propagatable" slots is currently only defined in the specification for the SSSOM/TSV format. This is not appropriate as those operations are completely independent of the format – propagation and condensation are performed identically regardless of whether a mapping set is read/written from/to a SSSOM/TSV file, a SSSOM/JSON file, or a RDF file.

So in this PR, we move the definition of those operations to the general introduction (serialisation-independent) of the SSSOM model.

We do not change anything about how propagation and condensation are performed, and the associated requirements.
