Tweaks to the Archives proposal [via Schema Architypes Community Group]

Following an active and interesting discussion at the LODLAM Summit 2017 
(notes from the session here) I have made some small tweaks to the proposed
model.

  Added a new property holdingArchive to the ArchiveCollection Type
This is an inverse property to the archiveHeld property of Archive.  Although
the Schema.org community does not encourage inverse properties I believe we may
have good pragmatic case here where the use-cases could include an Archive
holding a significant number of collections which would preclude their
individual listing on the Archive type.
  Confirmed that itemLocation is a property of ArchiveItem and replaces the
originally proposed use of location.

I have updated the model diagram and examples on the proposal page in the
wiki to reflect these changes.  They have also been reflected in the Archive
prototype Schema.org instance.

If people are happy with these changes, I suggest we move to proposing this
initial extension to the broader Schema.org community.

I have had some people indicate that if it was accepted they would be prepared
to look at implementing it in systems to which they have access/influence.  
Such support always helps with the submission of proposals to Schema.org, please
let me know if a) You could make such a commitment and b) if you would want that
to be known publicly or not.
