Re: [dxwg] Rephrase/Extend the opening of DCAT section about dereferenceable identifiers (#710)

Taking inspiration from the [use case 11](https://www.w3.org/TR/dcat-ucr/#ID11) and the description   provided by @andrea-perego  from which the identifier requirements are originated,  I have added the following few sentences at the beginning of the identifier section.  (see the branch https://github.com/w3c/dxwg/tree/dcat-issue710-riccardo)
 
>"The scientific and data provider communities use a number of different identifiers for publications, authors and data.

>DCAT primarily relies on persistent HTTP URIs as an effective way of making identifiers actionable. Notably, quite a few identifier schemes can be encoded as dereferenceable HTTP URIs, and some of them are also returning machine-readable metadata (e.g., DOIs, ORCIDs). Regardless, data providers still might need to refer to legacy identifiers, non-HTTP dereferenceable identifiers, locally minted or third-party-provided identifiers. In these cases, [DC11] and [VOCAB-ADMS] can be of use."

@kcoyle does this address your concers?
