[web-annotation] Terminology issue: Use IRI as resource identifier

tkanai has just created a new issue for 
https://github.com/w3c/web-annotation:

== Terminology issue: Use IRI as resource identifier ==
Both JSON-LD [1] and Turtle [2] clearly say that resource IDs  are 
expressed in IRI format. Then, I think IDs in models would be written 
in IRI, when they are serialized into each format.
On the other hand, the model document uses "URI" in many places, and 
it might make developers uncertain whether the IDs should be 
percentage encoded/decoded or not, in serialization/parsing processes.
To remove such ambiguities from the document, the terms URI in the 
document should be replaced with IRI.
