[dxwg] Replace FOAF terms - Agent (#1367)

dr-shorthair has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/dxwg:

== Replace FOAF terms - Agent ==
DCAT is a bit bogged-down by using some FOAF terms, while even the authors of FOAF have long since moved on to other vocabularies (esp. Schema.org). 

AFAICT there are no obvious like-for-like replacements for `foaf:homepage` and `foaf:primaryTopic`. 

But it would be a trivial to replace `foaf:Agent` with `dcterms:Agent`. I can't actually imagine what problems it could cause - @makxdekkers @andrea-perego?? It is only pointed to by `dcterms:creator` and `dcterms:publisher` so it would at least be more consistent with DCMI to use the DC class instead of reaching sideways into another vocabulary of dubious quality and governance.
