Re: [dxwg] Funding source [RFS]

In the research community I think 'Grant' is usually used to denote a kind of _Activity_, approximately equivalent to 'Project supported by a philanthropy or government funding agency or foundation'. 

In PROV-O terms the funder is an Agent associated with the Activity. In the [Project ontology](https://dr-shorthair.github.io/ont/project/#project-stakeholders) I have proposed `FundingAssociation` as a specialization of `prov:Association`, with the `Role` of the `agent` fixed to "funder", and an associated `SumOfMoney` and `grantNumber`.
